IDF SPOKESPERSON ANNOUNCEMENT

Summary of terror infrastructure targeted from the air by IDF forces in
Gaza Strip

Following the continuous Palestinian terror activity directed at Israeli
targets, including the firing of projectile rockets from the Gaza Strip
at Israeli communities, which has caused repeated damages to civilian
property, the IDF carried out an aerial attack tonight, December 27th,
2005, against terror infrastructures in the Gaza Strip:

The IDF targeted two buildings used by the "Al Aqsa Martyr's Brigades"
terror organization in the northern Gaza Strip; A structure used as a
recruitment center in Beit Lahiya and a building used as a center of
activity in the city of Gaza.

The "Al Aqsa Martyr's Brigades" terror organization is involved in the
planning and firing of projectile rockets towards Israel.

The IDF further targeted a bridge near the town of Beit Hanun and six
additional access routes in the northern Gaza Strip. These are used by
terror organizations to reach the launching grounds from which
terrorists fire projectile rockets at Israel. The objective of targeting
these routes is to prevent the passage of terrorists to the rocket
launching grounds, and to disrupt the repeated attempts to fire
projectile rockets at Israeli targets.

The IDF will continue to act determinately in order to defend the
citizens of the State of Israel.
