The Israeli occupation army started on Wednesday morning large-scale artillery drills to the east of the Gaza Strip particularly in the vicinity of Eshkol regional council (rural settlements).
The Israeli army already warned Jewish settlers living in Eshkol settlements to stay away from the areas where the drills would take place from 08:30 am to 03:00 pm.
A Hebrew news website said that heavy artillery projectiles would be fired during the drills and that loud explosions would be heard along the eastern border of Gaza.
