Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) early Sunday made a limited incursion into Palestinian lands east of Rafah south of the Gaza Strip.
Palestinian sources said that four Israeli bulldozers coming from the Sufa military site entered 50 meters into eastern Rafah City, escorted by four military jeeps as drones flew overhead.
Israeli military incursions inside the besieged Gaza Strip and near the "buffer zone" which lies on both land and sea sides of Gaza, have long been a near-daily occurrence.

Israeli naval forces have reportedly barred Palestinian fishermen from sailing off the coast of the northern Gaza Strip in recent days, according to a Saturday report from the official Palestinian Authority (PA)-owned Wafa news agency.
Wafa reported that naval forces barred fishermen on Saturday from sailing off the northern Gaza shores and forced them to return to coast, which fishermen reportedly say has been a daily occurrence recently.
“They said that the navy opened fire at fishermen across from Sudaniya shores in the northern Gaza Strip leading the fisherman to return to the marina,” Wafa reported, adding that no injuries were reported.
The Israeli army regularly detains and opens fire on unarmed Palestinian fishermen while sailing off the coast of Gaza.
As part of Israel's blockade of the coastal enclave since 2007, the Israeli army, citing security concerns, requires Palestinian fishermen to work within a limited "designated fishing zone," the exact limits of which are decided by the Israeli authorities and have historically fluctuated.

Mohamed Hajila 31
One Palestinian citizen was killed and another was wounded during an Israeli air raid at dawn Thursday on a resistance post east of the Gaza Strip.
An Israeli drone fired two missiles at a resistance post to the east of al-Shuja’iyya neighborhood, leading to the killing of 31-year-old Mohamed Hajila and the injury of another citizen, the PIC reporter said, adding that the casualties were transferred to al-Shifa Hospital
This airstrike was preceded by similar aerial attacks on Abu Jarad military site, which belongs to al-Qassam Brigades of Hamas, in Gaza City.
Spokesman for the Israeli occupation army Avichay Adraee claimed the airstrikes were in response to the detonation of an explosive device near a military vehicle during an incursion into eastern Gaza on Wednesday morning.
The Israeli army already bombed a resistance observation post and agricultural plots of land east of Gaza City with about 20 artillery projectiles in response to the same alleged explosion of an explosive device.
Israeli forces bomb Gaza, killing one Palestinian
After Israeli tanks spent the day on Wednesday firing artillery shells at numerous sites in northern and eastern Gaza, the Israeli military stepped up its assault on the coastal enclave Wednesday night with bombs dropped by the Israeli airforce which killed one Palestinian and injured another.
The Palestinian who was killed was identified as Mohammad Hjeila, 31.
He was hit by a bomb dropped by an Israeli fighter jet Wednesday night east of al-Shejaiyya neighborhood, in the eastern part of Gaza City.
Hjeila was with the al-Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of the Hamas party. His brother, Adham Hjeila, had been killed by Israeli forces in 2004.
The airstrikes on Gaza followed a day of shelling by the Israeli military. On Wednesday morning, a number of Israeli military vehicles and bulldozers invaded Gaza near the al-Mintar (Karni) crossing, an invasion that the Israeli military spokesperson described as ‘routine’.
The Israeli military claimed that during this invasion, an explosive device exploded near one of the militarized bulldozers.
Israeli forces stationed at the border then fired at least five shells east of Gaza City in al-Shejaiyya and al-Zaytoun neighborhoods. A Palestinian was moderately wounded by the shelling and taken to Shifa Hospital in Gaza City.
Later in the evening, the Israeli military sent in fighter jets to drop bombs in the same areas, which they claimed were being used as training sites for resistance fighters. According to Israeli media sources, Palestinian resistance fighters tried to shoot at the jets with guns. One bullet allegedly hit the roof of an Israeli house in a town adjacent to the border with Gaza, causing very slight damage.
In Gaza, dozens of houses near the site of the bombing had their windows blown out due to the ‘sonic boom’ from the bomb.
The Israeli military released a statement, saying, “A number of targets belonging to the Hamas terror organization were attacked. The [Israeli military] sees Hamas as responsible for any incident taking place in and from the strip and won’t allow the terror organization to turn the fence area into a conflict zone.”
This escalation by the Israeli military follows two weeks of non-violent protests by Palestinians in Gaza along the border fence with Israel. The Palestinians protesting at the fence are asking for an end to the decade-long siege of the tiny coastal strip, and the right of return for Palestinian refugees.
Through the siege, Israeli forces, who control the land, sea and air of Gaza, have prevented essential goods like fuel, medicine, building materials, maintenance equipment for electric and sewage plants, vehicles, books, medical equipment and many food items from entering Gaza. Palestinians have also been unable to leave Gaza for the past ten years, apart from very rare exceptions in which Palestinians who apply for a permit from Israel and wait for months or even years are sometimes allowed to leave.

Israeli military bulldozers on Wednesday morning moved 50 meters into eastern Khan Younis province, south of the blockaded Gaza Strip.
