Israeli war jets late on Friday resumed striking on the Gaza Strip in response to earlier rocket attacks at southern Israel from the coastal enclave, security sources said.
An F16 warplane fired two missiles at a smuggling tunnel under the border area between southern Gaza Strip and Egypt, the unnamed source said, adding the tunnel was destroyed, but no injuries were reported.
Earlier on Friday, Israeli war jets struck three separate targets in the Gaza Strip, including a house east of the strip's central town of Deir el-Ballah, and according to medical sources, at least six Palestinian civilians were injured.
The Israeli airstrikes were a response to earlier Palestinian Grad rocket and mortar attacks carried out by militant groups. The Popular Resistance Committees, loyal to the Hamas movement, claimed responsibility for the attacks, saying it's a response to Israel's daily violations against the Palestinian people.
