GAZA (PIC)– Israeli warplanes blasted targets in Beit Hanun north of the Gaza Strip at dawn Thursday with no casualties reported local sources said.
Palestinian sources said that an Israeli Apache gunship fired at least one missile at a group of Palestinians in Beit Hanun but missed them.
They added that the Israeli artillery also fired a number of shells at the same area but with no casualties suffered.
The Hebrew radio said that the raid was in retaliation to the firing of eight locally made rockets at the western Negev on Wednesday that exploded in an open area without harming anyone.
It said that inhabitants of localities near to the Strip were ordered to remain near shelters in anticipation of any possible development.
