Once again, Israel has launched an offensive against the Gaza Strip for days.

Israeli military continues to impose a comprehensive and complete ban on the details of the operation carried out by an elite Israeli force belonging to the Ghulani brigade.

A group of the forces of the Ghulani brigade in the late hours of Sunday night penetrated into the depth of the Palestinian territories in the Gaza Strip, which killed seven Palestinians, and the killing of an Israeli officer, which his details were leaked via social media platforms.

Information about the killed Israeli officer, according to Israeli sources said that Mahmoud Khairuddin who is a lieutenant colonel from the Druze village of Harefish.

The sources added that Khairuddin was the deputy commander of the commando unit, Sayeret Majlan.

The information also revealed that another officer of the Druze sect was also from the village of Asfiya was seriously wounded and was taken to Soroka hospital in the southern Israeli city of Beersheba.

The Israeli air strikes killed three Palestinians on Monday, which also destroyed a building belongs to a television channel in Gaza, in response to the firing of rockets from Gaza into Israel.

Palestinian factions in Gaza fired dozens of rockets on Monday in southern Israel, where sirens sounded in a number of areas, forcing Israelis to go to shelters in several towns bordering the Gaza Strip.

The IDF has counted the launch of about 200 rockets from Gaza, was intercepted sixty of them, and nine Israelis were slightly injured by the rockets, according to the aid agencies.

An Israeli army spokesman said most of the rockets landed in uninhabited areas, but two houses were directly hit in Ashkelon and near area.

The Israeli military spokesman said that an Israeli soldier was seriously wounded by an anti-tank missile fired at a small car parked near the village of Kafr Azza in the northern Gaza Strip.

The soldier was taken to hospital in critical condition.

Sunday’s Israeli operation and its subsequent developments forced Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to shorten his visit to Paris and return to Israel, heading a meeting on Monday that included Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman and security officials.

Israel has declared that the objective of the operation in Gaza was “to gather intelligence, not an assassination or kidnapping”.

The military spokesman Ronin Manlis said in a statement Monday that “the mission didn’t proceed as planned and resulted in the clashes”.

For its part, Izz Al Din Al Qassam battalions stated that it is a process of the Israeli special forces before being monitored and clashes broke out between the unites of Al Qassam and the Israeli invaded unites.

“A special Israeli force infiltrated on Sunday evening using a civilian vehicle in the eastern areas of Khan Younis, where it was discovered by a security force belonging to Al Qassam battalions and stopped the vehicle and verified it”, the statement said.

The statement added: “Field commander Noureddine Baraka came to the scene to find out the incident”.

“After the exposure of the force, Al Qassam fighters began to deal with it and an armed clash led to the martyrdom of the field commander Noureddine Mohamed Baraka”.

The statement pointed out that “Israeli aircraft of all kinds are trying to form a cover for the fleeing force, where intensified air raids to provide a cover to save the Israeli force by military helicopters”.

The Israeli army first spoke in a brief statement of an exchange of fire.

“During an Israeli military operation in the Gaza Strip, there was an exchange of fire”, he said.

A statement said that after the exchange of fire 17 rockets were fired from the Gaza Strip on Israel.

“The Israeli missile defense system was able to intercept three of them, but gave no details about the other rockets”.

These developments come as the situation in Gaza appears to be stabilizing after months of violent confrontations between Palestinians and Israeli soldiers near the fence separating the Gaza Strip and the Jewish state.

In this context, Israel allowed Qatar to hand over $ 15 million to Gaza to pay the salaries of its employees.

Netanyahu justified the decision Saturday evening, saying it could contribute to restoring calm.

The barrier between Israel and the Gaza Strip since 30 March has witnessed the “return marches” organized by the Palestinians to reject the siege imposed on the Gaza Strip more than 10 years ago and to assert their right to return to the land they left or abandoned during the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948.

But the intensity of the demonstrations finally subsided after Egypt intensified its mediation between Palestinians and Israelis to reach a truce in the sector and stop the violence that has been going on for months.

Israel justifies firing on Palestinian protesters as necessary to protect the border and prevent infiltration and attacks that Hamas accuses of pursuing.
