On Monday, Israeli Warplanes attacked what the military said was a weapon manufacturing site. This attack was shortly after a rocket was fired from the besieged Gaza Strip into southern Israel. The rocket was intercepted on Monday, the first such attack in months amid soaring tensions about the Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied East Jerusalem. There were no immediate reports of casualties or damage from the attack and no Palestinian group claimed responsibility for the rocket.
Palestinians accuse Israel of encroaching at Al-Aqsa during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. Israel says Palestinian protesters seek to disrupt Muslim prayer for political ends and to prevent visits by Jews who are celebrating Passover.
Prior to the rocket attack, Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett accused Hamas of waging a "Wild harassment campaign" against Israel.
