Earlier this morning, IAF aircraft targeted a terrorist squad that was preparing to fire a rocket at Israel from the southern Gaza Strip. A hit was confirmed.

The IDF is prepared to respond with strength and determination against any attempt to execute terrorist attacks against the citizens of the State of Israel.

Terror organizations that carry out terror attacks against the State of Israel will bear the consequences of these actions in any future operation embarked upon by the IDF. The Hamas terror organization is solely responsible for any terrorist activity emanating from the Gaza Strip.
