Israeli warplanes at dawn Tuesday launched several airstrikes on Rafah in the southern area of the Gaza Strip.
Local sources said that Israeli warplanes at daybreak repeatedly bombed Palestinian agricultural lands in the eastern area of Rafah.
Panic prevailed among local residents as a huge fire broke out after the air raids but the civil defense crews who rushed to the scene managed to put it out within a few minutes.
No casualties were reported in the attack.
The Israeli army for a week now has been launching dawn airstrikes on the Gaza Strip on a daily basis claiming that they come in response to fire balloons sent from the coastal enclave towards adjacent Israeli settlements.
