[JPost] The IDF struck terrorist targets in the Gaza Strip following incendiary balloon attacks, as hundreds of Palestinians gathered along the border fence to riot, throwing explosives and burning tires.| Only hundreds, when Hamas used to pay for thousands? How embarrassing for them. |
The rockets came after IDF fighter jets and aircraft struck targets belonging to the Hamas terrorist organization in the Gaza Strip, in response to incendiary balloon attacks, and disturbances on the border fence occurring as hundreds of Palestinians rioted along the border fence, throwing explosive devices and burning tires.
| A renewal of the utterly ineffective border fence riots? Golly. |
The incendiary balloon attacks caused at least 30 fires to break out in Israel on Saturday, and been sent into Israeli territory over several days.
In recent years, countless incendiary and explosive balloons have been launched by Gaza's terrorists. They sometimes have books or toys attached to lure children. Some have sparked large wildfires, such as on Tuesday, and mainly damage crops.
Following incendiary or explosive balloon attacks on Israel starting up again, Israel warned balloon units in Gaza that if attacks don't stop, then action will be taken. As balloon attacks continue, in which several hundred hectares of land including agricultural, the IDF and Defense Ministry have made several efforts halt the Gaza-base terrorist activities.
