Israeli fighter jets, drones pound Gaza Strip

The Israeli military launched a combined aerial blitz using warplanes and armed drones against the Gaza Strip. The military says, the aircraft attacked an outpost belonging to the resistance groups in southern Gaza to the east of the city of Rafah.

The military also hit the site on two occasions, claiming that the attacks were meant as a reaction to alleged earlier rocket fire from Gaza towards the occupied territories.

Palestinian sources have reported that explosions had echoed across the territory and Rafah itself suffered power outage during the Israeli bombings.

The Tel Aviv’s military aircraft and UAVs were also reported to have started conducting extensive overflights of the territory to apparently strike fear into Gaza’s residents.

Israeli drones separately struck another Palestinian outpost in the northern part of the coastal enclave.

The Palestinian resistance has been retaliating against the fresh Israeli aggression with anti-aircraft gunnery.
