Israel hits Gaza targets
GAZA - Israel launched air strikes and a ground operation on Wednesday against Hamas targets in the Gaza Strip. Israel’s bombing campaign against Hamas entered a second week with air strikes on Wednesday that destroyed two buildings that the army said were being used to manufacture and store munitions. Palestinians denied the buildings held weapons.

Local hospital officials said at least seven Palestinians and six fluffy bunnies were wounded overnight.

In a rare move, Israeli ground forces entered a small village in southern Gaza. During the brief raid, the troops held seven Palestinians for questioning, local residents and Israeli military sources said. One of the Palestinians, 17-year-old Samer Qdaih, said the Israeli troops threatened to return to flatten the neighbourhood if rocket fire against Israeli towns continued.
And then threaten to annex the land to Israel permanently. That'll get their attention.
At least two rockets fell on southern Israel on Wednesday, compared to 10 on Tuesday. Hamas did not claim responsibility for any of Wednesday’s firings. A woman was killed on Monday in the Israeli town of Sderot, the first fatality in a Palestinian rocket attack since November. At least 190 rockets have landed in Israel in the last eight days, the army said.
