Israeli aircraft attacked several sites for Gaza's Hamas rulers early Wednesday in response to rocket fire from the Palestinian enclave.
The Israeli military said the targets of the multiple airstrikes in the southern Gaza Strip included a weapons manufacturing facility. There were no reports of injuries.

The airstrikes came shortly after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu threatened to "respond vigorously to any attack."
"If someone in Gaza thinks that he can raise his head after Operation Black Belt, he is sorely mistaken," Netanyahu said in a statement, referring to two days of intense fighting between Israeli forces and Palestinian terrorists two weeks ago that was the worst such cross-border conflict in months.
Late Tuesday, the Israeli military had said it identified two projectiles fired from the Gaza Strip, with missile defenses intercepting one.
The rocket attack was the second incident this week and rattled the shaky ceasefire brokered by Egypt and the UN earlier this month that ended the latest round of fighting with Palestinian terrorists.
The flare-up was triggered when Israel eliminated a senior Islamic Jihad commander in Gaza. The terrorist group launched hundreds of rockets at Israel in response.
Unofficial ceasefires have led to months of calm between Israel and Hamas, which has ruled Gaza since 2007.
