The Palestinian resistance bombed the city of Ashkelon in the Gaza Strip and Israeli military fortifications in the Netzarim axis in the middle of the Strip. In return, the Israeli occupation army organized a press tour of tunnels that it said belonged to the Qassam Brigades in Rafah.
This comes as the Israeli occupation forces continue to commit massacres against civilians in the Gaza Strip, in addition to blowing up and destroying residential areas.
Al-Aqsa TV reported that the Palestinian resistance launched a barrage of rockets from the Gaza Strip towards Ashkelon.
As the rockets were launched from the Strip, sirens sounded in the city, which is 56 kilometers from Tel Aviv.
For its part, the Israeli army said that the Iron Dome system intercepted a rocket fired from the northern Gaza Strip at Ashkelon, and another fell in the marine area.
Video clips on social media platforms showed the sound of air raid sirens and the intervention of the Iron Dome to intercept the rockets launched from Gaza.

In turn, the Martyr Omar Al-Qassem Forces announced the shelling of a gathering of occupation forces in the Netzarim axis with a number of heavy-caliber mortar shells.
The Israeli government claims to have destroyed the military capabilities of Hamas and Islamic Jihad in Gaza and eliminated thousands of their fighters, but its forces are exposed to daily ambushes in the Gaza Strip, and the resistance factions periodically bomb the Gaza Strip and Tel Aviv, despite the passage of nearly a year since the beginning of the war.
New massacres
Meanwhile, helicopters and Quadcopter drones opened fire in the vicinity of the Dawla junction, south of the Zeitoun neighborhood, southeast of Gaza City, and east of the Maghazi camp in the central Gaza Strip.
Israeli aircraft and artillery also bombed the Nuseirat and Bureij camps in the central Gaza Strip and the city of Khan Yunis in the southern Gaza Strip.
The occupation forces committed a new massacre by targeting the home of the Bustan family in the Tuffah neighborhood in the northern Gaza Strip, which resulted in 10 martyrs and a number of wounded.
This Saturday morning, the occupation army committed two massacres in Gaza City, resulting in 15 martyrs. It also intensified its bombing of the northern Gaza Strip after threatening to launch a new military operation there.
In the Al-Mawasi area, west of Khan Yunis city in the southern Gaza Strip, Al Jazeera's correspondent reported the death of a Palestinian and the injury of 6 others in an Israeli bombardment that targeted a tent for displaced people.
The Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip announced this afternoon that the Israeli occupation forces committed 4 massacres in the Gaza Strip in the past 48 hours, killing 64 martyrs and wounding 155.
Thus, the number of martyrs, since the beginning of the Israeli war on the Gaza Strip, has risen to 41,182 martyrs, and 95,280 wounded.
In a related context, Al Jazeera's correspondent reported that the occupation forces released 9 detainees from the Gaza Strip through the "Kerem Abu Salem" crossing, confirming that they were transferred to the European Hospital to receive treatment.
Tunnel tour
For its part, the Israeli army took journalists yesterday, Friday, to tunnels that it said it had discovered in the city of Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip, including the entrance to the underground room in which the bodies of 6 Israeli prisoners were found on September 1.
The army did not allow journalists to enter the tunnel in the Tel al-Sultan area of Rafah for security reasons. But it released footage showing a narrow, unventilated passageway that it said was about 20 metres (66 feet) underground where it said the prisoners had been held, possibly for weeks.
The occupation army claimed that "the Tel al-Sultan tunnel is part of a large network of tunnels, 13 kilometers long, that Israeli forces operating around Rafah, near the border with Egypt, have uncovered over the past few months."
In addition to the opening leading to the supposed tunnel in which the detainees were killed, the occupation army also showed journalists a wide tunnel large enough for a truck to pass through and which led to Egypt but was closed on the Egyptian side, according to the same allegations.
Except for rare visits accompanied by the occupation army, foreign media organizations have not been allowed to enter Gaza since the beginning of the Israeli war on Gaza on October 7, which left more than 136,000 Palestinians dead and wounded, most of them children and women, and more than 10,000 missing, amid massive destruction and deadly famine.
Israel continues this war, ignoring the UN Security Council resolution to stop it immediately, and the International Court of Justice’s orders to take measures to prevent acts of genocide and to improve the humanitarian situation in Gaza.
