The Israeli military has bombarded the besieged Gaza Strip, calling the assault a response to alleged rocket fire, as the Tel Aviv regime continues with its acts of aggression against the blockaded Palestinian enclave.
In a statement issued following the attack, the Israeli military said that an Israeli tank attacked an outpost purportedly run by the Gaza-based Hamas resistance movement at around 2:40 a.m. local time on Saturday.
It further claimed that the attack was conducted in retaliation for two rounds of rocket attacks, saying that the first three rockets had been fired from the Gaza Strip toward the occupied territories at around 11:00 p.m. local time on Friday.
