An-Najah News - Two sites in Gaza Strip where attacked by Israeli artillery causing heavy damage but no casualties.

Israeli artillery fired three shells at a site east of the city completely destroying it. No casualties were reported, however.

Israel escalated its punitive measures against the besieged Gaza Strip. These measures included halting the supply of fuel and therefore forcing Gaza’s power plant to stop operating, and closing the sea to Gaza fishermen. 

It claims the measures came in retaliation for the flying of incendiary balloons from Gaza into bordering Israeli sites.
