GAZA CITY (Ma’an) – Two Palestinians were injured, one of them critically, as Israeli warplanes targeted the southern Gaza Strip for the fifth day in row, onlookers said.
A Ma’an reporter said fighter jets fired missiles at the town of Khuza’a east of Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip.
Two men were injured and were evacuated to Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, where medics said one of the victims sustained critical wounds.
Israel's army described the target as a "terrorist squad planning to target IDF soldiers," the Ynet news site reported. The attack was a result of a cooperation with the Shin Bet.
On Sunday, medics said seven Palestinians from one family were injured in Israeli airstrike on Beit Hanoun. Amongst the victims were four children. Israel's army denied carrying out the attack.
