Israeli warplanes launched two air raids on Rafah, south of Gaza Strip, and Beit Lahia, north of the coastal enclave, at dawn Tuesday causing material damage but no casualties.

Local sources told the PIC reporter that Israeli F16 warplanes fired a missile at a tunnel near the Brazil refugee camp in Rafah.

Other sources said that the second raid targeted a training camp for the Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of Hamas, in Beit Lahia but no casualties were reported in both raids.

The raids coincided with the Israeli navy gunboats opening machinegun fire at Rafah shores, locals said.
