The Martyr Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades, Hamas' military wing, responded to the Israeli massacres against Palestinian civilians on Saturday by bombarding the Nir Yitzhak settlement in the Gaza Strip with a barrage of short-range Rajum 114 mm rockets. 

Israeli media had reported three rocket launches from the Gaza Strip toward the southern Gaza Strip. 

Last week, the al-Qasam Brigades announced that its fighters targeted the Israeli-occupied city of Isdud [Ashdod] with a barrage of rockets in response to the Israeli massacres of Palestinian civilians in Gaza. 

Israeli media had reported sirens in the center of occupied Palestine, as well as in Askalan [Ashkelon] and Isdud [Ashdod]. Israeli media also noted that seven rockets targeted Isdud [Ashdod]. 

Meanwhile, the spokesperson for the Israeli military stated that ten rockets were fired from Gaza, claiming that some were intercepted.
