Israeli warplanes have launched a series of air raids on Gaza City, medics and witnesses have said.

Saturday's airstrikes were carried out on different targets in northern and central Gaza Strip as well as in Gaza City.

Adham Abu Selmeya, Gaza emergency chief, told reporters that no injuries were reported. The explosions kept the population awake.

Three of the raids targeted bases of the Izzedine al-Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of Hamas.

These attacks caused significant damage both to the targets and to neighboring houses. Two other raids targeted the north and south of the city.
