Israeli fighter jets have bombarded three tunnels near the southern Gaza Strip border with Egypt on Islamic Hopliday of Eid ul-Fitr. Israeli military claims the overnight attack on Sunday targeted tunnels that were used for importing arms into the Gaza Strip, DPA reported.
| All the jet pilots and their crews were Jewish, so they didn't have to observe the Muslim holiday. |
Earlier Sunday, Israeli shells killed two Palestinians in the northern Gaza Strip town of Jabalia near the border with Israel, a Palestinian official said.
The Israeli and Egyptian-imposed siege of the Gaza Strip has left the Palestinian people in the coastal sliver with no options but to use tunnels to get a small portion of food and fuel they need.
| But they get all Kassem rockets they can use, so that's ok. |
