IOF targets the Gaza Strip after midnight
Israeli occupation warplanes carried out several raids, on Friday at 3:10am, targeting a number of locations in the Gaza Strip, occupied Palestine.
Successive explosions were heard across Gaza, as some have targeted the 13th Brigades site, a faction of Hamas' Al-Qassam Brigades, near the entrance of the Maghazi refugee camp. The Resistance retaliated using anti-aircraft weaponry, however, the Israeli raids caused a power outage in large parts of the camp.

PIJ vows revenge for IOF murders in West Bank
In the wake of the Israeli occupation forces' killing of two senior Islamic Jihad (PIJ) figures in Jenin, occupied West Bank, the PIJ issued a statement condemning the IOF's actions and vowing revenge.
"The blood of martyr Farouk Salameh will open the gates of hell for the occupation's leaders," the resistance movement said in a statement after the IOF killed senior officials during confrontations in the Jenin refugee camp of the West Bank.

"The cowardly assassination will not break the will of our freedom fighters in the Jenin Brigade," the PIJ added. The murder "will constitute a motive to continue holding the first line of defense for our land and people, avenge the blood of our martyrs, and we will not rest until the occupation perishes."
The PIJ had issued a statement mourning the two martyrs, Farouk Jamil Salameh and Mohammad Samer Khalouf, who were martyred during an IOF raid on the Jenin refugee camp earlier in the day.
With the two martyrs in Jenin, the toll rose to four martyrs in one day after Amer Bader Halabiyeh (20 years old) from Hanina and Mahmoud Khalil Rayan (42 years old) from Beit Duqqu were brutally killed by the Israeli occupation forces.
