The Israeli military announced today that it had carried out a "targeted attack" on a weapons depot in the northern Gaza Strip, in order to "eliminate the threat of a terrorist attack."
"The army carried out a precise strike in the Beit Lahia area in the northern Gaza Strip, targeting terrorist infrastructure where weapons and aircraft were stored, intended for use in an immediate terrorist attack on soldiers and the State of Israel," the statement said.
The Israeli army announced this morning a return to the ceasefire in effect since October 10 in the Gaza Strip, after carrying out a series of attacks on Tuesday in response to the opening fire in which a soldier was killed.
