According to the Israeli army, the attack was aimed at extremists who were on a missile launch pad. At least one Palestinian was killed and two others injured, according to hospital reports.
The Israeli Air Force killed three senior members of the Islamic Jihad on Tuesday night. Israeli airstrikes in the coastal strip killed a total of 13 people, including several women and children. Two members of a Palestinian militant group were also killed in an Israeli attack on a car in southern Gaza on Tuesday. According to the army, they would have carried guided anti-tank missiles.
Several groups in the Gaza Strip announced retaliatory measures. During the night it was relatively quiet at first. Israel, however, remained on high alert on Wednesday. Schools in the border area with the Gaza Strip remained closed. Residents have been instructed to stay near shelters.
The Israeli army justified the military strike in recent weeks with several attacks from the Gaza Strip. Most recently, Palestinian militants fired dozens of rockets and mortar shells into Israeli territory following the death of a Palestinian prisoner last week.
