Palestinians: IAF kills three in Gaza |
2008-03-16 |
Israeli airstrikes killed three Palestinian terrorists and wounded six, Palestinian medical and security officials said. They said the dead and injured were all members of the Islamic Jihad group, hit in three separate raids in central and northern Gaza. The IDF confirmed two strikes, in which it said five armed men preparing to launch rockets at Israeli targets were hit. Earlier, the military said, three Palestinian rockets fell in Israel but there were no reported casualties. Two of the Islamic Jihad members that Palestinians said were killed in an IAF strike in Gaza were responsible for the rocket attack last month which left Sderot boy Osher Twito with one leg. Meanwhile, a fake bomb was found on the road to Ma'aleh Adumim near a Border Police base on Saturday with an attached note warning of upcoming terror attacks. The device was stored inside a white bag and contained a cellular phone. The note, signed by Hamas and written in Arabic, "cautioned Israeli governance of terror attacks." |
