Afrasianet - Israeli aircraft attacked a target in the southern Gaza Strip on Saturday, the army said, and also closed the goods crossing into the Palestinian enclave.

Israel “targeted a terror infrastructure using fighter jets in the southern Rafah region, adjacent to the Egypt-Gaza Strip border,” an army statement said.

“The Hamas terror organization is accountable for all activity in and from the Gaza Strip,” it said.

Palestinian security sources in Gaza said nobody was wounded in the Israeli strike.

Earlier Saturday, Israel’s defense ministry said the Kerem Shalom goods crossing between Gaza and Israel near Rafah would be closed from Sunday “until further notice”.

A defense ministry spokeswoman would say only that the rare move came following “security assessments”.
