Israeli forces yesterday morning fired several mortar shells at targets near Khan Yunis in the southern Gaza Strip, according to Israeli media.

Israeli media reported that Israeli forces fired five or six mortar shells at several “suspicious” targets near Khan Yunis in southern Gaza. No injuries or damages were reported.

An Israeli army spokesperson told Ma’an she would look into reports on the shelling.

Last month, the Israeli army shelled a site allegedly used by Palestinian militant groups in the central Gaza Strip, after a rocket fired from the Gaza Strip hit an open area in southern Israel. No injuries were reported at the time.

Israeli forces also carried out several airstrikes on the besieged Gaza Strip in mid-September. No injuries were reported.
