Israeli aircraft struck targets in the northern Gaza Strip late Sunday following a barrage of rocket fire into southern Israel. No casualties were reported on either side.

In a statement, the IDF said attack helicopters and fighter jets struck "underground infrastructure" belonging to Gaza's ruling Hamas terrorist group.

Earlier Sunday, the army said a total of three rockets were fired by Gaza terrorists toward Israel, setting off air-raid sirens in southern Israel.

It said one of the rockets was intercepted, while Channel 12 said the other two landed in open areas.

After numerous skirmishes over the years, Israel and Hamas have largely observed an unofficial cease-fire in recent months.

There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the rocket fire. A number of armed terrorist groups operate in Gaza.

Israel says it holds Hamas, as the controlling power in Gaza, responsible for all attacks emanating from the territory, including attacks from other terrorist groups.
