Israel strikes hit camps used by Hamas, hours after it shot down a rocket fired from Gaza

Описание: Israeli air strikes hit camps used by Hamas and another Gaza faction on Tuesday (April 19), Palestinian sources said, hours after the Israeli military said it had shot down a rocket fired from the Gaza Strip.

The military said one target was an arms manufacturing site. No one was hurt.

The rocket launch was the first such attack in months as tensions over a flashpoint Jerusalem shrine drew angry pro-Palestinian rhetoric from Jordan and U.S. mediation efforts.

No Gaza faction claimed responsibility for the launch, which followed warnings by the dominant Hamas Islamists of reprisals for Israeli conduct around Jerusalem's Al Aqsa mosque compound.
