GAZA - Israel carried out air strikes in the Gaza Strip overnight, destroying four buildings belonging to militants of the Hamas and Islamic Jihad movements involved in attacks against Israel. Three houses used by HamasÂ’ armed wing to store weapons were targeted in Jabaliya and Beit Lahiya, north of Gaza City, and the southern Gaza town of Rafah near the border with Egypt, an army spokesman said Friday.A metal workshop in the southern town of Khan Younis, which Israel said belonged to the militant Islamic Jihad and was used to manufacture weapons, was destroyed in the southern town of Khan Younis.
At least four neighbours were reported injured in the strike in Rafah. Israeli officers gave advance warnings to the home-owners in telephone calls shortly before the attacks.
| This is getting a little old. You can destroy buildings but they'll need to clean Gaza out before the Qassams will stop. I was one of the people here supporting Sharon handing Gaza back to the Paleos, and I was wrong. Now it's time to scrub Gaza clean: throw all the people there into Egypt or transport them to the West Bank (or Syria, heh) and start over. |
