Four killed in Israeli strikes on Gaza
MIDEAST: Four Palestinians were killed on Wednesday in Israeli
military operations in the Gaza Strip, medics said, as US President
George W. Bush landed in Israel on a trip in honour of its 60th
anniversary.
Three Palestinians were killed during clashes with Israeli troops
east of the northern town and refugee camp of Jabaliya, according to Dr
Muawiya Hassanein, the head of Gaza emergency services.
Witnesses said two of the men were militants from the Islamist Hamas
movement that has ruled the Gaza Strip since June. Another Hamas
militant was killed in an air strike near the southern town of Khan
Yunis, medics said. Gaza city, Wednesday, AFP
