The Air Force demolished two targets in southern Gaza early on Monday morning. The targets, part of Gaza's terrorist infrastructure, were destroyed in response to a Saturday night rocket attack.
"The IDF will not tolerate any attempt to harm the citizens of the state of Israel, and will continue to operate against those who use terror,” an army spokesman said following the strikes. “The IDF holds Hamas as solely responsible for maintaining peace and quiet in the Gaza Strip.”
The Saturday night attack ended with no injuries after the rocket hit an open field in the Hof Ashkelon Regional Council.
Gaza terrorists have fired approximately 50 rockets at southern Israel since the beginning of 2010. Terrorists have fired more than 330 rockets since the end of the Cast Lead counterterror offensive in Gaza in early 2009.
