Israeli jets attacked on many places in Gaza in the background of a security force raid at the Al-Aqsa Mosque.
A “military location” west of the city and a site in the Nuseirat refugee camp in the middle of the Strip were both struck by Israeli aircraft.
After the nighttime Israeli police strike on worshipers at Al-Aqsa Mosque, the raids happened early on Wednesday morning.
