The Israeli occupation army on Tuesday night waged aerial attacks on a Palestinian resistance site in the Gaza Strip, with no reported casualties.

A reporter for the Palestinian Information Center (PIC) said that eight Israeli airstrikes targeted the same resistance site in the south of al-Zeitoun neighborhood in Gaza City.

The aerial aggression caused damage to civilian property and panic among families in the bombed area.

The Israeli army claimed the new airstrikes were in response to rocket fire from Gaza on Tuesday evening.

For over a week, the Israeli army has been attacking Gaza in response to incendiary balloon launches by young protesters from the besieged coastal enclave.

The authorities in Gaza describe the flying of balloons carrying incendiaries towards Israel by young men as acts of protest against Israel’s failure to honor previous ceasefire pledges to ease the blockade on Gaza and its persistence in attacking fishermen.
