| IDF strikes Gaza weapons factory... |
| 2002-08-05 |
| Israeli helicopters struck a suspected weapons factory in Gaza City Monday night following a weekend of terror attacks that killed 13 Israelis. The Israel Defense Forces said its forces attacked a steel works used to manufacture weapons. "The IDF will continue to attack and destroy the terrorist infrastructure in Gaza Strip and in every place where there is terrorist activity against Israeli citizens," the IDF said. One explosion lit up the nighttime sky with a bright blue flash. Moments later electricity went out in parts of the city. CNN crews said at least three rockets were fired. They said ambulances were moving throughout the city and there were no signs of Israeli troops moving on the ground. Palestinian sources said four people were lightly wounded. That's too bad (he said, ambiguously). |
