Israeli strikes kill 2 Hamas gunmen in Gaza

IDF says carried out air strike targeting terrorists in Hamas-controlled territory. Palestinian medical workers say seven other gunmen wounded in two air strikes outside southern Gaza city of Khan Younis

Israeli air strikes killed at least two Hamas gunmen in the Gaza Strip on Friday, Hamas and medical workers said.

 

An Israeli army spokeswoman said the IDF had carried out an air strike targeting gunmen in the Hamas-controlled territory.

 

Palestinian medical workers said seven other gunmen were wounded in two air strikes outside the southern Gaza city of Khan Younis near the border fence with Israel.

 

Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert on Thursday vowed Israel would strike Hamas after Gaza militants killed two Israeli civilians at a border terminal with Israel.

 

Hamas Islamists seized Gaza after routing forces loyal to President Mahmoud Abbas of Fatah in June.
