The Israeli army claimed to have hit two targets of the Islamist Hamas
movement in the Gaza Strip early Sunday after Palestinian militants
launched explosive devices at Israel.
"We struck two Hamas posts
in response and explosions was heard by Israeli families who live near
the Gaza border," the IDF wrote on Twitter.
The Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) said the Israeli territory of Eshkol Regional Council was put on alert.
On
Saturday, the so-called night confusion units, part of the Great March
of Return protests that have been taking place every Friday since March
30, 2018, also carried out violent protest on the Gaza-Israel border.
The
units burned tires near the border fence, separating Israel from Gaza,
and used dozens of sound bombs to confuse Israeli forces and disturb
nearby Israeli towns, according to Palestinian sources.
Meanwhile,
Israeli sources said the units detonated more than 300 sound bombs on
the border over three hours, with no injuries reported.
In a
statement earlier on Saturday, the units said night activities would
take place along the strip's border every day at 7.00 p.m. until dawn.
Ashraf
al-Qedra, spokesman for the Gaza Health Ministry, said a Palestinian
was killed and three others wounded on Saturday during clashes with
Israeli soldiers in the northern part of the coastal enclave.
On
March 30, Palestinians in Gaza are to commemorate the one-year of the
Great March of Return, which calls for the right of Palestinian refugees
and their descendants.
Since the beginning of the weekly border
demonstrations last year, 261 Palestinians have been killed and 29,000
others injured, sources said.
