Israeli warplanes blast targets in Gaza

GAZA, (PIC)– Israeli warplanes launched a series of air raids on different targets in the Gaza Strip at dawn Saturday, local sources said, adding that no casualties were reported.

The sources told the PIC reporter that Israeli F-16s bombed a deserted land area west of Breij refugee camp, in central Gaza, causing a big hole.

Israeli warplanes later launched another sortie targeting a training ground for the Quds Brigades, the armed wing of Islamic Jihad movement southwest of Khan Younis, south of Gaza Strip, causing huge explosions but no casualties, locals said, noting that four missiles were fired at the area.

PIC reporters in the Strip said that Israeli warplanes were covering the skies of Gaza, spreading fears among its population of more air strikes.

RAFAH, (PIC)– A number of Palestinian citizens including a year and a half old toddler were wounded in Israeli air raids afternoon Saturday on a number of targets in southern Gaza Strip, local sources reported.

They said that the Israeli aerial raids caused big damage to a water well near to a training site for the Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of Hamas.

Another raid soon followed on another training ground for the Hamas armed wing east of Rafah.

Adham Abu Salmiya, the spokesman for medical services, said that the series of Israeli air strikes slightly wounded four citizens including the one and a half year child Saja Abu Sharkh.

He added that a fifth citizen, a worker, was wounded when Israeli occupation forces fired at him while collecting gravel north of Beit Lahia town in northern Gaza Strip.

The Israeli warplanes had earlier Saturday launched two raids on a training camp for the Quds Brigades, the armed wing of Islamic Jihad, west of Khan Younis, south of the Strip, and a deserted land lot in Nusseirat refugee camp in central Gaza.
