An Israeli military statement Friday morning said aircraft had bombed six targets in the Gaza Strip, in response to rocket fire targeting towns and villages adjacent to the salient on Wednesday night. The targets hit were two weapons storage facilities in the northern Gaza Strip, three tunnels in the southern strip, and “a weapons manufacturing facility” in the centre of the enclave, the statement said.
