At least four fires broke out today (Wednesday) in the western Negev, mainly in thorny fields in the Eshkol Regional Council, after incendiary balloons were blown into the area from the Gaza Strip.

This, after the Air Force attacked tonight in the Gaza Strip.

Firefighters stressed that "most of the fires were small and not dangerous."

IDF forces attacked Hamas military complexes last night, in response to the launching of incendiary balloons into Israeli territory yesterday. According to details provided by the IDF spokesman, the corps' aircraft attacked camps and meeting sites of terrorist operatives in Khan Yunis and Gaza.

This is the first IDF attack carried out during Naftali Bennett's tenure as prime minister, and the first in the Gaza Strip since the end of Operation Wall Guard.

The attack came after a tense day in the country, during which thousands of people participated in the flag parade in Jerusalem.

In addition to the inflating of balloons that ignited more than 20 fires in the envelope, there were also violent demonstrations along the border fence.

In response to the attack, Hamas said that "the Zionist bombing of the Gaza Strip is a failed attempt to stop the identification of our people, and to cover up the unprecedented confusion of the Zionist institution that organized the flag parade."
