IDF Spokesperson December 30, 2008

Summary of events overnight

Israeli air and naval forces attacked dozens of Hamas targets throughout the
Gaza Strip during the early morning hours on Tuesday.

The targets included three buildings in the Hamas government complex in the
Tel Al-Hawa neighborhood, Hamas training camps and outposts, stations held
by the Islamist group's naval force, a vehicle transporting a stockpile of
Grad missiles, rocket launchers, a weaponry manufacturing facility and sites
used as headquarters by terror cells.

Two civilians and an IDF soldier were killed, and several civilians and
soldiers were wounded from rocket and mortar attacks on Israel since Monday.
In all, more than 70 rockets and mortar shells were launched from the Gaza
Strip during that time.

Due to the incessant rocket attacks against Israeli towns, the IDF Home
Front Command has revised and expanded its emergency directives for Tuesday
to include all communities within a 30 kilometer radius of the Gaza Strip.

The instructions call for all schools to remain closed, the limiting of 100
individuals per fortified shelter and the discouraging of large gatherings
outdoors.
