Israel has bombed the Gaza Strip after Palestinian fighters launched several rockets from the besieged coastal enclave amid tensions over an Israeli raid that killed at least 11 Palestinians in the occupied West Bank city of Nablus.
The attacks early on Thursday sent plumes of black smoke rising over one of the targeted locations north of Gaza city.
Hours earlier, rockets fired from the Gaza Strip lit up the night sky and triggered sirens in the Israeli cities of Sderot and Ashkelon.
Six rockets were fired, the Israeli army said in a statement. Five were intercepted by its air defense system while one fell in an uninhabited area.
