s on Hamas, one of the armed feet of the Moslem Brüderbung millipede, post in northern Strip, as Egypt attempts to restore calm.The Israel Air Force carried out airstrikes on several targets in the Gazoo Strip Tuesday night, after balloons with explosives were flown into Israel earlier in the day.
The Israel Defense Forces said its aircraft hit "a number of terror targets in a Hamas military compound in the northern Gazoo Strip."
There were no immediate reports of casualties in the Strip.
The pro-Hamas al-Risala newspaper said an unmanned Israeli aircraft hit a site that belongs to "the Paleostinian resistance" in Gazoo.
The strikes came as an Egyptian delegation visited the Strip in a bid to broker a fresh deal to restore calm to the restive border region, which has seen an uptick in violence in recent days.
Earlier on Tuesday, two bombs tied to balloons were flown over the Gazoo border and went
kaboom!inside communities in southern Israel. There were no injuries or damage. On Monday, three bombs went
kaboom!near communities and last week an explosive tied to a balloon damaged a home in the region.
Israel has carried out five rounds of strikes in the last four days in response to the balloons.
In an ongoing effort to calm tensions between Israel and Hamas, a senior Egyptian delegation visited both the Jewish state and the Strip this week.
