JERUSALEM (AP) — Israeli rescue services have reported a “massive” cross-border rocket barrage by Palestinian militants from the Gaza Strip.
The barrage Wednesday came just hours after an Israeli air strike and marked the first major exchange of fire since a truce took effect in June.
The Israeli military said at least 20 rockets were fired from the strip early Wednesday but there was no immediate word of injuries or damage.
Israel launched an airstrike on Gaza earlier Wednesday after its troops fought a fierce gunbattle with Hamas militants who fired mortars into southern Israel. The fighting killed six Palestinians and threatened to unravel the truce, that had mostly quieted violence in the volatile territory.
