The injured were all taken to a local hospital.
Israeli army spokesman Avichai Adraee stated that the army bombarded a Hamas center in Gaza in retaliation for a rocket that was fired into southern Israel. He held the Hamas party fully responsible for any escalation in the region.
The five men who were injured have not been identified – one of them was injured seriously, while three sustained moderate injuries. The fifth sustained a mild injury, but no further details were available at the time of this report as to the extent and type of injuries.
