Israel carried out several air strikes in the Gaza Strip, wounding at least five people. The Israeli military said, it struck four targets today, including a group of militants who were trying to fire a rocket at Israel. The attack came after a rocket fired from the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip landed in the Israeli city of Beersheba, where no injuries were reported. The air strikes come a day after Israel approved the construction of 277 new housing units in a Jewish settlement located deep in the occupied West Bank.
