Tehran, IRNA- The forces of Saraya al-Quds, a military wing of the Palestine Islamic Jihad Resistance Movement have fired a number of rockets toward Zionist settlements adjacent to the Gaza Strip.

According to Palestinian IShihab news agency, Saraya al-Quds in a statement on Wednesday night said the rocket launches were in response to the crimes committed by the Zionist regime against Palestinians.

We targeted the settlements of Sderot, Nir Am and other Zionist settlements along Gaza with rockets, the statement said.

Israeli officials or media have yet to comment of the attacks but the Israeli Army Radio confirmed that 2 anti-armor missiles were fired at the town of al-Metula in the northern occupied Palestine, without mentioning casualties or damage.

Saraya al-Quds has launched several such retaliatory rocket attacks on Israeli positions in the past month.

Palestinian fighters have been putting stiff resistance to invading Israeli forces not only on the ground in Gaza but they keep targeting Israeli positions with rockets despite the regime's false narratives that its war on Gaza has weakened resistance groups.
