Israel’s fragile coalition government gets first test, launches airstrikes on Hamas
Fox News
Prime Minister Naftali Bennett's coalition government, just three days into its term, responded to an incendiary balloon attack from Hamas by launching airstrikes in the Gaza Strip.
The Jerusalem Post reported that Israeli Defense Forces said it targeted Hamas infrastructure. About 20 fires broke out in southern Israel as a result of the balloon attack, the report said. The New York Times, citing Palestinian news, reported that one of the Israeli strikes caused damage to at least one property, but there have been no confirmation of any casualties. The paper reported that Israel had been on edge after the new government approved a "far-right Jewish march to pass through Palestinian areas of Jerusalem on Tuesday night."More Related News
