The Israeli military launched airstrikes against Hamas targets in Gaza overnight after militants floated dozens of so-called "incendiary balloons" over the border fence into Israel.
Officials
said at least 20 fires were started Tuesday by the balloons.
Palestinian media reported the retaliatory Israeli strikes caused
material damages, with no casualties reported.
More balloons were launched Wednesday, starting at least four more fires, Israeli fire and rescue authorities said.
While
militants have been sending balloons into Israel for years, the Israeli
military's response of airstrikes in Gaza is a new escalation. Israeli
officials said it was part of a message to Hamas that any provocation
will be met with force.
