JERUSALEM - Israeli gunfire killed a Palestinian man Saturday on the West Bank and later Israeli fighter jets attacked military targets in Gaza, the army and Palestinian sources said, in the latest of many flare-ups in violence since Israel and Hamas agreed to a cease-fire in May.
The Israeli army said fighter jets had "struck a weapon manufacturing site and a rocket launcher belonging to the Hamas terror organization" in Gaza. According to security sources and witnesses, the facilities hit were west of Gaza City and in the northern strip, with no immediate reports of casualties. "The strikes were made in response to the arson balloons fired towards Israeli territory," said a statement from the Israeli army.More Related News
