Hamas has announced the beginning of the third "intifada" a week after Donald Trump recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. It didn’t take long for Israel to respond. Hamas positions in the Gaza strip were targeted by Israeli Air Force strikes on Tuesday night, hours after a Palestinian rocket attack on Israeli territory. It was not immediately clear whether there were any casualties on the Palestinian side.
The official Israel Defense Forces Twitter account has specified that the attack targeted the movement’s military compound: "In response to the rocket fired from the Gaza Strip at Israel earlier today, the IAF targeted a Hamas military compound in the southern Gaza Strip"
