At least 10 people have been killed after Israeli forces hit targets in Gaza, Palestinian health officials said yesterday. Among the dead was a five-year-old, and 44 people were wounded in the strikes, added officials. Palestinian officials claimed one of those who had died was a senior militant.
Israel said it was targeting the Islamic Jihad group and the strikes came after tensions were heightened following the arrest of a senior militant, Bassam al-Saadi, in the occupied West Bank earlier this week.
"The Israeli government will not allow terrorist organisations in the Gaza Strip to set the agenda in area adjacent to the Gaza Strip and threaten the citizens of the state of Israel," the prime minister, Yair Lapid said in a statement. “Anyone who tries to harm Israel should know: we will find you."
