TEL AVIV – Night of fire on the Gaza-Israel border. In the last few hours, 17 rockets have been fired from the Strip into nearby Israeli towns, but five have been intercepted by Iron Dome defense systems. Alarm sirens still ring along the border and the population is in shelters. The military spokesman points it out. Earlier, he added, the Israeli air force struck an "offensive tunnel" to southern Gaza and "terrorist targets" and continued to hit Hamas targets on Saturday in at least three raids in total.
In total, at least 31 rockets have been launched since the band. Six of them were intercepted. The violence began yesterday as thousands of Palestinians in Gaza rushed to cross-border reticles as part of the so-called "March of Return". This was followed by serious incidents in which a 15-year-old Palestinian boy was killed by the fire of the army and dozens of other protesters were injured. For its part, an Israeli officer was wounded by a grenade thrown by one of the demonstrators
In response to these incidents and fires provoked in Israel by the continuous launching of kites and incendiary balloons from Gaza, said the military spokesman, the aviation launched an offensive destroying a "military tunnel" and several goals of Hamas. While this attack was under way from Gaza, the launch of the rocket to Israel began. In several Israeli settlements along the border, residents have been ordered to lock themselves in their homes. No casualties are reported.
