Gaza:
Three Palestinians were killed and two injured Sunday during
Israeli artillery shelling in the Gaza Strip, medical sources at
the Beit Hanoun hospital said.
The artillery shelling in the northern Gaza Strip city of Beit
Hanoun was carried out after Gaza militants fired three mortar
shells into the southern Israeli region of Negev. The shells
reportedly did not cause any injuries or damage.
Militants have launched an increasing number of rockets in the
last few weeks, leading Israel to retaliate.
Israeli F-16 fighter jets Thursday night carried out four
successive airstrikes on several targets in the Gaza Strip in
response to an earlier homemade rocket. No injuries were reported
in any of the attacks.
Last week, one Palestinian was killed and two injured in an
Israeli airstrike on smuggling tunnels in southern Gaza along the
border with Egypt, also in response to an earlier mortar shell.
Since the beginning of the year, militants have fired more than
100 rockets and mortars into Israel, according to the army.
