Israeli jets hit Hamas-held area in Gaza

GAZA CITY, Palestine

Israeli jets late Sunday bombed an area in the northern part of Gaza belonging to Izzeddin al-Kassam, Hamas's armed wing, according to sources on the ground.

Medical sources reported that there were no casualties.

While the Israeli army has yet to make a statement on the bombing, the airstrikes followed three rockets being fired from Gaza at surrounding Israeli settlements earlier Sunday.

The Israeli army said two of the three rockets were intercepted by its Iron Dome defense system.

No one has claimed responsibility for the rockets fired from Gaza.
