The IDF successfully hit a Gaza terrorist cell on Saturday night as the cell prepared to launch rockets at southern Israel. Reports from Gaza stated that the incident took place near Beit Hanun.

Gaza sources stated that three terrorists were wounded in the incident. At least one is in serious condition.

IDF sources said the same cell had carried out attacks on multiple occasions, and was responsible for an attack Thursday.

“The IDF will not tolerate any effort to harm the citizens of the state of Israel, and will act against any source that uses terrorism against the state of Israel,” the army said in a statement released Saturday night. The IDF considers Hamas responsible for all attacks from Gaza, it added.
