The Martyr Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades, Hamas's military wing, 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. 

Three settlers were reported injured in Askalan, with panic spreading among settlers and significant damage to cars, buildings, and streets due to direct hits in the occupied town, as well as in the Shefela region south of Tel Aviv.
