JERUSALEM -- Israeli warplanes and drones bombed more than 100 sites across the Gaza Strip over the weekend, the Israeli military said in a statement on Sunday, with Palestinian health officials reporting nearly 200 fatalities.
In the statement, the military said the airstrikes were directed at militant targets, including launch sites allegedly used to fire three rockets toward Israel on Friday.
The strikes reportedly killed "dozens" of Hamas fighters, according to the Israeli Defense Forces and Shin Bet.
The Hamas-run Gaza Media Office reported on Saturday evening that at least 184 people were killed during about 92 Israeli airstrikes and shelling incidents over the weekend.
