Early on December 4, a series of Israeli strikes hit the Gaza Strip in response to a rocket attack that targeted settlements near the Palestinian enclave.
The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) said that a rocket was fired from Gaza at southern Israel late on December 3. The rocket landed in an open field, causing no injuries or damage. Still, an alert was activated near the Gaza border settlements of Nahal Oz and Kfar Aza.
In a statement, the IDF said that the retaliatory strikes targeted a weapons workshop and tunnel used by the Hamas Movement, the de-facto ruler of Gaza.
