Israeli Defence Forces have reported two missiles fired from Gaza Strip toward the Israeli city of Beersheba. The report comes after IDF said on Twitter that the sirens sounded across southern Israel.

Later, IDF reported that they were making strikes on Hamas targets in Gaza Strip.

​The Israel Defence Forces (IDF) and Palestinian militants clashed earlier in the week, with tensions escalating after the army eliminated commander of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad Baha Abu al-Ata.

Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) and the IDF reached a fragile truce, however, IDF reported rocket fire from Gaza hours after that.
