The Israel Air Force attacked a terror cell in the southern Gaza Strip town of Khan Younis. Sources in the Israel Defense Forces said the target of the strike was Hussam Hamdan, a senior Hamas member responsible for the group's rocket activity, who was responsible for the rockets fired at Beersheba and Ofakim.
Additional activists were also hurt, including Muhammad Hilou – a Hamas member responsible for operating the special forces in Khan Younis. (Hanan Greenberg)
