Israeli strike kills two Hamas militants in Gaza
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] An Israeli strike on Tuesday killed two forces of Evil of the Gazoo Strip’s ruling Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, movement after shots were fired at soldiers, Gazook and Israeli officials said.

The krazed killer group’s military wing, the Ezzedine al-Qassam Brigades, confirmed in a statement that the dead men were its fighters, naming them as Ahmed Murjan and Abdel-Hafez al-Silawi.

It said a series of kabooms had targeted a military site while it was being visited by big shots, without naming them.

An Israeli military statement, apparently referring to the same incident, said that the army returned fire after shots were fired at its soldiers from a Hamas post in the northern Gazoo Strip, next to the border with Israel.

Paleostinian security sources said that the Israeli attack was in the north of the strip.

A video distributed by the Israeli army appeared to show a tank striking a military post in the Gazoo Strip.

The military said it was prepared "to target any aggression against Israel and holds Hamas responsible for everything happening in and from the Gazoo Strip."

It added that no Israeli troops were maimed in the exchange.

Hamas warned Israel that it would pay for the attack, without elaborating.

"The resistance cannot allow the occupation to impose a policy of bombing sites and targeting fighters without paying the price," it said in a statement.

Speaking later, Hamas leader Ismail Haniya condemned what he called a "crime."

He said the movement was facing "rapid political and field developments."

Since Paleostinian protests and festivities along the Gazoo border erupted at the end of March, at least 160 Paleostinians have been killed by Israeli fire.

One Israeli soldier has been rubbed out by a Paleostinian sniper.

The protests call for Paleostinians to be able to return to the land they or their families fled or were expelled from in the 1948 war surrounding the creation of Israel.

Israel says any such return would mean its end as a Jewish state.

Gazoo’s rulers Hamas have fought three wars with Israel since 2008.

The United Nations
...an idea whose time has gone...
and Egypt are currently trying to secure a deal between Israel and Hamas for a lasting truce.
