CAUSE & EFFECT: Israeli helicopters fire 10 missiles at Gaza City metal workshops
Sunday, June 27, 2004 GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) -- Israeli helicopters fired 10 missiles at two metal workshops in Gaza City early Monday, setting off fires, witnesses said. There was no immediate word on any casualties. The two strikes, just minutes apart, came just hours after militants blew up an Israeli army outpost in Gaza and wounded five soldiers. Two militant groups, Hamas and the Al Aqsa Martyrsâ Brigades, claimed responsibility for the attack on the outpost. In the first air strike, three missiles hit a metal workshop in the Zeitoun neighborhood, setting off a small fire. One bystander was slightly hurt. In the second attack, several more missiles hit a metal workshop in downtown Gaza City, causing a large fire. Posted by: Zenster 2004-06-27 |
