Eight Paleos killed, 30 wounded in Gaza raid
 The Israeli army raided south Gaza on Friday in response to increasing Palestinian mortar attacks, killing at least eight Palestinians and prompting hundreds to flee their homes, witnesses and medics said. At least eight Palestinians were killed and 30 wounded in Friday's army raid into Khan Younis, Gaza's second largest city and a hotbed of militants who frequently pepper nearby Jewish settlements with mortar and rocket fire. Two Palestinians were killed by an Israeli missile strike. Six of the Palestinians killed on Friday were militants and at two were civilian bystanders, local medics and witnesses said.Posted by: Fred 2004-12-18 |
