On Thursday, which was Israeli Independence Day on the Hebrew calendar, a rocket was fired from the Gaza Strip reportedly by Palestinian Islamic Jihad and impacted uninhabited territory in southern Israel.
In response to the rocket fired from Gaza at Israel earlier tonight, IDF fighter jets and attack helicopters just struck a Hamas weapons manufacturing site, a weapon smuggling tunnel and a military post.
