Military sources tell newspaper the intent had been to hit Islamic Jihad infrastructure; neighbors say terrorist commander lived in the house but was not there at the time

The military carried out air strikes on Islamic Jihad targets overnight in response to multiple rocket attacks violating ceasefire throughout Thursday

Previously, Israel always blamed Hamas for Gaza terror; not this time. And Gaza's rulers were happy for Islamic Jihad to fight alone. Why the change, and what does it presage?

But another source in terror group insinuates Hamas already taking part in confrontation spurred by targeted killing of Palestinian Islamic Jihad commander

Spokesman for terror group says that only after it completes its response to Israel's elimination of its commander will it be possible to discuss efforts to restore calm

Egyptian officials say Cairo is attempting to de-escalate tensions, but Palestinian Islamic Jihad reportedly says response to Israel's targeted killing of commander has yet to come

Israel repeatedly urged Gaza's rulers to stop Baha Abu al-Ata, but was ignored. Hamas was betting Israel wouldn't dare eliminate him and risk a new conflict. It was wrong

Terror group says Baha Abu al-Ata played 'a prominent role in supervising many operations' against Israel; IDF says he was responsible for recent rocket attacks

No reports of serious injury or damage from rocket barrages after Islamic Jihad commander killed

IDF says it hit building where Baha Abu al-Ata, blamed for several rocket attacks, was present in the Shejaiya area of Gaza City
