| 2004-06-27 |
Sunday, June 27, 2004 GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) -- Israeli helicopters fired 10 missiles at two metal workshops in Gaza City early Monday, setting off fires, witnesses said. There was no immediate word on any casualties. The two strikes, just minutes apart, came just hours after militants blew up an Israeli army outpost in Gaza and wounded five soldiers. Two militant groups, Hamas and the Al Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades, claimed responsibility for the attack on the outpost. In the first air strike, three missiles hit a metal workshop in the Zeitoun neighborhood, setting off a small fire. One bystander was slightly hurt. In the second attack, several more missiles hit a metal workshop in downtown Gaza City, causing a large fire. |

| #1 It amazes me that in an area that is suffering total economic depression, there are so many "metal shops" that need missile attacks. If a couple of these shops decided to manufacture trash cans, the Gaza streets might look better - for a while until the can were full. I'm certain that trash collection would be considered unacceptable work for a jihadi. |
