Zionist warplanes bomb Gaza for third day

Zionist regime warplanes have bombed the Gaza Strip for the third day running, escalating fears of a new flare-up in a military confrontation with the Palestinians.

According to Press TV, Palestinian witnesses said there were two sets of air raids on Friday morning, one targeting Beit Lahia in northern Gaza and the second in Khuza'a, southeast of Khan Yunis, in the south of the besieged territory.

It was the fourth Israeli regime military’s air raid on the enclave since Wednesday. According to the Israeli army, Palestinians fired mortar rounds from Gaza at Israeli forces near Gaza border on Friday.

It came a day after the Israeli tank fire killed a 54-year-old Palestinian woman, identified as Aytah al-Amur, in her home in Khan Yunis in southern Gaza Strip.

Another Palestinian was also wounded in the attack. At least 10 mortar rounds have been fired into Israel since the Tel Aviv regime began its new phase of bombing Gaza on Wednesday.

Meanwhile, the Israeli army said on Thursday that they found a tunnel along the border. Gazans have been using the tunnels to bring in basic needs into the besieged enclave.

The Ezzedine Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, warned the Israeli regime to stop the attacks.

The group charged the Zionist illegal Zionist entity with encroaching on the Palestinian territory and voiced readiness to retaliate.
