The IDF attacked a Hamas post near the Gaza border on Wednesday, in response to Hamas operatives firing on IDF forces.

Palestinian media reported machine gun fire being directed from within Gaza at IDF aerial vehicles, and Israeli media reported that some bullets hit buildings in the border town of Sderot.

Sderot Mayor Alon Davidi called upon the IDF to respond “in full force” to the bullet fire. “Bullets should be regarded as missiles, and Hamas is responsible for everything that happens in Gaza,” said Davidi.
