On Friday night, IAF aircraft targeted a number of sites in the central Gaza Strip.

On Shabbos, IAF aircraft targeted a terror tunnel and two terror activity sites in the southern Gaza Strip.

The terror tunnel was intended to be used by terrorists to infiltrate into Israel and to carry out terror attacks against Israeli civilians and IDF soldiers.

Since the beginning of 2011, over 50 Qassam rockets, Mortar shells and Grad missiles have been fired at Israel’s southern communities and cities. Since Wednesday, four rockets hit Be’er Sheva and the Sdot Negev Regional Council.

The IDF said that it will not tolerate any attempt to harm Israeli civilians or IDF soldiers, and will continue to respond harshly to terror. The IDF said it holds the Hamas terrorist organization solely responsible for maintaining the calm in the Gaza Strip and for any terrorist activity emanating from it.
