...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect.

Strip late Friday night in response to rockets fired from Gaza into Israeli territory earlier in the night.

During the IDF operation, a rocket weapon production site was targeted in addition to underground infrastructure and a Hamas military post. Earlier Friday night sirens sounded in the Gaza border communities of Ashkelon, Mavki'im, Karmiya, Zikim and Nativ Ha'asara.

The IDF confirmed soon after that its Iron Dome missile defense system intercepted two missiles above the city of Ashkelon.

Magen David Adom reported that no one was injured, except for one woman was taken to Barzilai Medical Center in Ashkelon to be treated for anxiety following the sirens.

"Attacks by the IDF won't break the will of the Palestinian people, but strengthen their resolve to insist on their rights," a Hamas statement released after the attacks read.
