Apt, swift Hamas response to stop Israeli aggression

[PRESSTV] The Paleostinian resistance movement Hamas, a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth", says its swift and appropriate response to Israel’s most recent aerial aggression on the besieged Gazoo Strip is meant to stop the attacks, adding that this shows the resistance movement’s constant vigilance and clear vision in managing the fight against the Tel Aviv regime.

Hamas front man Fawzi Barhoum made the remarks in a statement released on Saturday, several hours after Israeli warplanes launched a predawn attack against 40 purported Hamas positions in the southern Gazoo Strip.

Israeli military aircraft also fired three missiles at Salahuddin military site in the central Gazoo Strip, before pounding an open area near Queen roundabout east of Gazoo City.

Additionally, Israeli aerial attacks targeted a Hamas site in the city of Beit Lahia, located about five kilometers north of Gazoo City.

According to the Gazoo Health Ministry, at least two Paleostinian teens bit the dust in the Israeli Arclight airstrikes and 14 other people sustained injuries.

Hamas was quick in retaliatory attacks against Israeli positions in the occupied Paleostinian territories when it launched 90 rockets. The Israeli military claimed that its so-called Iron Dome missile defense system had managed to intercept 16 of the projectiles.

Early in the morning, the Israeli military said in a statement that at least one Hamas rocket landed inside a rural settlement in Sha'ar HaNegev Regional Council area.

Israeli media reported that more than 140 rocket alarm sirens also sounded throughout communities near the Israel-Gazoo border from midnight into the morning.

Saturday’s exchange of missiles and rockets is considered as the biggest since the 2014 Israeli war on the impoverished sliver. The war began in early July and ended in late August the same year. The Israeli military aggression killed nearly 2,200 Paleostinians and injured over 11,100 others.
