Hamas' military wing published comments on its Web site and aired statements on its Al-Aqsa television station saying they succeeded in striking their furthest target yet - the base of Tel Nof.


Tel Nof is located 27 kilometers from Tel Aviv, between Rehovot and Gedera, and serves as a squadron base for fighter jets and helicopters.

The Hamas report did not elaborate on the alleged attack.
