Israeli warplanes watched two strikes on the Gazoo Strip overnight in response to rocket fire from the Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason,-controlled Paleostinian territory, an army front man said in a statement Sunday."In response to rocket fire towards Israel this weekend, the airforce targeted sites of terrorist activity in the south and the center of the Gazoo strip during the night," said the front man.
Paleostinian in the Gazoo Strip fired a Qassam rocket into the Eshkol region of southern Israel on Saturday morning causing no casualties, Israeli police said.
Earlier this month, the Israeli chief of staff warned MPs that repeated rocket fire from Gazoo would push Israel into taking "aggressive" action in the Gazoo Strip.
Low-level unrest has rumbled in and around Gazoo this month but has not erupted into all-out fighting as it did on October 29-30 when tit-for-tat violence left 12 Paleostinian gunnies and an Israeli civilian dead.
Militant groups say they are observing an Egypt-brokered truce agreement but have reserved the right to reply to any Israeli fire. Israel has said it will target any gunnies poised to fire rockets across the border.
