Israeli occupation warplanes at dawn on Monday have launched a series of raids on Palestinian resistance sites in the Gaza Strip.
The aircraft attacked a site and a land in the Sheikh Ajlin neighborhood, southwest of Gaza City, with about 10 missiles, causing large explosions and a fir in the area.
The Palestinian Information Center reported that the raid targeted two resistance observation points east of Khan Younis in the south and Beit Hanoun in the north of Gaza Strip,
No causalities have been reported so far.
The Zionist military said in a statement that it targeted in the early hours of Monday morning a Hamas underground facility, alleging that, “the resistance movement used for the production of rocket materials in the central Gaza Strip.”
It further claimed that the airstrikes were in response to a rocket launch from the Palestinian enclave on Saturday evening.
On the other hand, The Palestinian resistance movement Hamas strongly condemned the latest Zionist airstrikes on the besieged Gaza Strip, saying the ongoing ‘Israeli’ aggression is doomed to failure due to steadfastness and resistance of the Palestinian nation.
“The resistance front will remain the protective shield of our people. The ongoing aggression is bound to fail in the face of our people’s revolution, steadfastness and resistance,” Hazem Qassem, a Hamas spokesman, said in a statement on Monday morning.
“The Zionist bombardment of Gaza coincided with acts of aggression against Nablus and al-Quds, confirming that we are facing a campaign of hostilities against our entire nation. We salute the fighters of the al-Qassam Brigades, who repelled the Zionist enemy’s raids on the Gaza Strip, and confused the Occupation army and its settlers,” Qassem said.
