Israeli troops closed roads near the boundary fence with Gaza before the strikes began
The Israeli military says it has begun carrying out strikes on Hamas militant targets in the Gaza Strip, hours after a rocket struck a house in Israel.
Witnesses reported hearing explosions across the Palestinian territory just before the military’s announcement.
On Monday morning, seven people were hurt when a rocket launched from Gaza hit a house belonging to a British-Israeli family north of Tel Aviv.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed to respond to the attack with force.
