GAZA CITY: Israeli tanks hit a position of the Hamas in the Gaza Strip after a rocket was launched on southern Israel from the Palestinian enclave, the army said on Friday.

A military statement said the overnight strike had targeted “terrorist infrastructure” in the north of the Mediterranean enclave.

A spokesman for Gaza’s emergency services said nobody was wounded.

A military spokeswoman confirmed that the tank fire had been in response to the rocket launched from the Gaza Strip on Thursday, which triggered warning sirens in southern Israel but caused no damage.\
