A rocket launched by Palestinian terrorists in the Gaza Strip impacted inside the enclave on Wednesday, according to the Israel Defense Forces.
It was the second such incident in three days.
“A short while ago, a projectile was launched from Gaza and fell within Gaza. The details are under review,” the military announced.
“The IDF recently attacked several launch sites in the area from which the launch that fell in the Gaza Strip earlier today was detected,” it subsequently stated.
On Monday, a terrorist rocket that was fired toward Israeli territory from Gaza’s southernmost city of Rafah landed inside the Strip.
Following the incident, the IDF “struck the launch site from which the projectile was fired, as well as an additional launch site in the area,” the military announced.
On Feb. 13, a 14-year-old Palestinian was killed in Nuseirat in the central Gaza Strip when a terrorist rocket fell inside the coastal enclave. Unconfirmed video footage posted to social media showed a projectile impacting a densely populated area shortly after being launched.
IDF reinforcements have been deployed to the border with Gaza, reportedly amid suspicions that Hamas terrorists were planning an attack on Israeli forces in the area.
The Israel Defense Forces on Tuesday fired warning shots at suspects throughout the Gaza Strip who posed a threat to troops, according to the military.
The IDF also fired toward “a number of vessels that violated security restrictions in the Gaza Strip’s maritime space,” it stated.
“The vessels did not move away, but after additional firing, they returned to shore,” according to the Tuesday night statement.
The army reiterated its call to “obey IDF instructions, not approach forces deployed in the area and pass through agreed checkpoints.”
