Four of the new recruits were seriously injured, two critically, from shrapnel and blast. One of the Qassams exploded in an empty tent in the Zikkim facility north of Gaza; a second outside the mess tent full of soldiers on their last day of basic training. Jihad Islami and the Popular Resistance Committees claimed responsibility. Israel is pondering a large-scale military response and cutoff of supplies and services to the Gaza Strip. The Israeli air force meanwhile struck missile sites in N. Gaza as Palestinians fired celebratory shots in the mosques. |
