Israeli Warplanes Target Southern Gaza Strip
MEP: Israeli warplanes have bombed areas of Gaza Strip in early hours of Saturday morning after carrying two airstrikes reportedly in the city of Khan Yunis, located about 25 kilometers (15 miles) south of Gaza City, Arabic-language Safa news agency reported.
The first airstrike struck a field behind Abu Subhia factory in the al-Zana area, south of the Gaza Strip, while the second targeted an area close to Abu Taima block making workshop.
There were no immediate reports of possible casualties.
The airstrikes came hours after Tel Aviv claimed that two rockets fired from the coastal enclave had hit an Israeli military base in Kissufim, which lies south of the Gaza Strip. The projectile reportedly did not cause any injuries and there was no damage.
The report also comes as Israeli warplanes earlier targeted bases of resistance in the southern Gaza Strip in which an old woman was killed.
