Cautious clam returns to Gaza after wave of Israeli air raids

Friday 15-March-2019

Tentative clam has been reigning over the Gaza Strip since 05:36 am local time following five hours of wanton Israeli aerial attacks on civilian and resistance sites which caused damaged to property and injured four citizens.

Local sources told a reporter for the Palestinian Information Center (PIC) at nine o’clock in the morning that there were no air raids for about three and a half hours although there were still intensive overflights in the airspace of Gaza.

The health ministry in Gaza for its part affirmed that four civilians from Rafah and Gaza City suffered different injuries and burns.

The Palestinian Information Center (PA) has documented the occurrence of over 60 airstrikes across Gaza during five hours of aggression.

However the Israeli army claimed its warplanes launched attacks on about 100 targets in Gaza.

Israel launched its air raids on Gaza in response to the alleged firing of two missiles at Tel Aviv but resistance factions including Hamas and Islamic Jihad denied responsibility for the missile attack.
