Zionist Regime Launches Airstrikes on Gaza

AL-QUDS (Dispatches) – The Zionist regime’s military has carried out airstrikes in the Gaza Strip, with no immediate reports of possible causalities or damage as a result of the air raids.
A regime’s military spokesperson said in a statement that overnight, Israeli fighter jets and attack helicopters struck several sites belonging to the Hamas movement on Sunday.
Among the sites were a Hamas military camp with warehouses, offices and sentry positions in the compound. Additionally, a military post belonging to the Hamas naval force in the northern Gaza Strip was also destroyed, the army said.
There were no immediate reports of injuries.
Hamas warned the regime against continued airstrikes on its positions in the besieged Gaza Strip, describing such acts of aggression as "serious escalation that cannot go unpunished.”
"The Israeli Occupation would suffer from the consequences of its foolish acts, which would backfire on the regime,” Hamas spokesman Fawzi Barhoum said in a statement on Sunday.
"The valiant resistance, spearheaded by al-Qassam Brigades, has enough experience how to deal with the enemy, and alter its equations ….”
Palestinian security officials said the aircraft struck two sites belonging to al-Qassam Brigades, the Hamas military wing, in northern Gaza, with another series of sorties at a Qassam site west of Gaza City.
Gaza has been under siege by the Zionist regime since June 2007, which has caused a decline in living standards.
The regime has also launched three major wars against the enclave since 2008, killing thousands of Gazans and shattering the territory’s already poor infrastructure.
