Israel strikes Gaza, suspends cement imports after rocket fire
|
[IsraelTimes] Army says Hamas, the braying voice of Islamic Resistance®, ’war room’ and other targets in northern Strip hit from air after fourth straight day of cross-border launches; Defense Ministry announces other punitive actions.
Israeli forces struck Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response ...
just after midnight Sunday morning, hours after a rocket was fired from the enclave at southern Israel, the IDF said.
The Defense Ministry also announced it was freezing cement imports and other punitive steps in response to near daily attacks from the Strip recently.
The Israel Defense Forces said that warplanes and helicopter gunships carried out attacks on Hamas targets in northern Gaza.
It said a Hamas "war room" and underground facilities used by the terror group were hit, among other assets.
"The attacks were carried out in response to high-trajectory fire and the launch of incendiary balloons from Gaza into Israel," the army said in a statement.
The Hamas linked Shehab news site earlier reported Israeli attacks on targets near Beit Lahia in the north of the Strip.
There were no immediate reports of injuries.
On Saturday night, a rocket fired out of Gaza landed in an open area the Sha’ar Hanegev region, as tensions in the restive region ramped up.
No damage or injuries were reported.
The attack occurred while Blue and White party leader Benny Gantz and other top members of his faction were visiting the area, forcing them to hold their meeting with residents in a bomb shelter.
The area has seen a marked increase in violence over the last several days, with near daily rocket fire and launches of suspected balloon borne bombs, drawing retaliatory Arclight airstrike
 ...KABOOM! ...

Israel said late Saturday that was suspending cement imports into the Strip in response to the attacks.
It also said it was cutting the number of commercial entry permits given to Gazooks by 500 starting Sunday. Israel currently gives out 5,500 permits.
Israel has allowed cement imports into the Strip since 2014 under a mechanism overseen by the UN designed to ensure building materials are used for civilian purposes and not constructing tunnels or other military infrastructure.
In 2016, Israel froze cement imports for 45 days after a cross-border tunnel was discovered.
"The decision was made following security consultations and in light of repeated terror activity from the Gaza Strip against Israeli citizens over the past weeks, which have represented a violation of Israeli illusory sovereignty," the Defense Ministry unity charged with liaising with Paleostinian civil authorities said in a statement.
Saturday was the fourth day in a row in which Lions of Islam in the Strip fired rockets or mortar shells at southern Israel.
Throughout the day on Saturday, a number of balloons suspected of carrying bombs were launched from the Gaza Strip into southern Israel. Balloon clusters were found in the Lachish and Merhavim regional councils to the east of Gaza. Police sappers were called to handle the potential bombs.
Explosive devices and incendiary devices tied to balloons have increasingly been floating over the border from Gaza in recent weeks.
