Overall, since midnight, there were 250 attacks in the Gaza Strip.
IDF spokesman said that during the night the IDF continued attacking 150 launch systems for medium ranges throughout the Gaza Strip, whilst drawing significant damage to arrays and weapons storehouses of terrorist organizations.

"As a result of the continued attacks, and hit to the launch systems in the Gaza Strip, high trajectory fire into Israel was reduced during the night significantly to individual falls in open areas," the spokesman said. He added: "Since the beginning of 'Pillar of Defense' operation over 450 targets were attacked throughout the Gaza Strip. The purpose of the attacks was to disrupt launch capabilities of terrorist groups and hit their power. Moreover, the Air Force hit a terrorist activity center in the southern Gaza Strip, in order to deepen the impact on the command of the terrorist organization Hamas.

"Since the beginning of the operation the Iron Dome system intercepted over 130 rockets. Gaza became an Iranian base in front and it puts the citizens of Israel under rocket fire and unbearable terror. IDF is determined and will continue to attack targets that are bases for terrorism against Israeli civilians. At these moments, the IDF continues a wave of a planned attack, massive and accurate at the sub launching positions - ground fire aimed at Israeli towns.

"During the night, a building used to manage terrorist activity in Khan Yunis was attacked. The assault detected a significant explosion, suggesting the presence of cluster weapons in the place. A large part of weapons stored were located in civilian residential buildings. This is further evidence of the pattern of the Hamas terrorist organization and the use of the population in Gaza as human shields ".
