In response to rocket fire, the Israel Air Force struck two tunnels intended for terrorists infiltrating into Israel and executing terror attacks against civilians or IDF soldiers
In a joint IDF- ISA activity, The Israel Air Force struck two terror tunnels in the southern Gaza Strip and one terror tunnel in the northern Gaza Strip overnight. The tunnels were dug one kilometer from the security fence and were intended for infiltrating into Israel and executing terror attacks against Israeli civilians or IDF soldiers. Direct hits were identified.
The attack is in response to the two rockets that hit Israeli territory in the past two days, landing in the Eshkol Regional Council and the Hof Ashkelon Regional Council.
Approximately 50 rockets have landed in Israeli territory since the beginning of 2010, and over 330 rockets were fired from the Gaza Strip into Israel since the end of operation Cast Lead.
