JERUSALEM (JTA) — Israel’s Air Force struck two Hamas targets in the Gaza Strip.
The strikes early Sunday morning on a Hamas terror activity center in northern Gaza and a weapons manufacturing facility in central Gaza were in response to the firing of rockets from Gaza at southern Israeli communities over the weekend, the Israel Defense Forces spokesman said in a statement.
Two Palestinians were injured in the attack, according to Palestinian sources, Israeli media reported.
