Israel has struck 30 'military targets' in the Gaza Strip in response to a wave of mortar attacks from the Palestinian enclave.
Palestinian militants had launched their heaviest barrages against Israel since the 2014 Gaza war before Israeli aircraft struck back in a surge of fighting after weeks of border violence.
