TEHRAN, August 5 -The Israeli military says its aircraft has conducted airstrikes on the northern parts of the besieged Gaza Strip, claiming it hit targets over “arson balloons.”
TEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC) - According to a brief statement released by the occupying regime’s military on Sunday, the aircraft “fired towards a vehicle that” allegedly served for “launching arson balloons” inside the occupied territories.
It added that the aircraft, a warplane according to some sources and a combat drone according to others, also fired another rocket at a gathering of Palestinians purportedly “launching arson balloons from the northern Gaza Strip into Israel.”
The Gaza Health Ministry confirmed the airstrikes and said that at least four Palestinians had sustained injuries in the aerial aggression.
Flying kites and balloons have become a new mode of resistance since Palestinians began their weekly protests near a fence separating the Gaza Strip from the occupied territories on March 30.
