Israeli warplanes launch three airstrikes in Gaza Strip

Six Gaza residents were injured Friday in when Israeli forces launched three air strikes on the coastal enclave, medics said.

The Israeli military confirmed the strikes in a statement, adding that "direct hits were identified."
The strikes targeted sites in the southern and central Gaza Strip. Four were injured in a strike on Deir Al-Balah, where shelling targeted a two-storey home. The injured, who included two women, were transferred to hospital, Gaza medical services spokesman Adham Abu Salmiyya said.
Two attacks targeted Khan Younis in southern Gaza. One strike on the southern area injured a man and a child, who were transferred to the Nasser Hospital, Abu Salmiyya said.
No injuries were reported from the third strike, which hit a farmers' field.
The Israeli army said the strikes were “in response to projectiles launched from the Strip into southern Israel”.
According to the military, ten mortar shells and one grad rocket were fired since Thursday, causing damage. No injuries were reported.
