An Israeli air strike on southern Gazoo on Wednesday killed a "global jihad" myrmidon who put together a bushwhack on Israel's border with Egypt, the military said.The strike targeted a man riding a cycle of violence in the southern city of Rafah which lies on the border with Egypt, killing 21-year-old Ghaleb Ermilat, Paleostinian medics said. Another person was maimed in the strike.
Residents said Ermilat was an activist with the Ezzedine al-Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of Gazoo's ruling Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, movement.
His death raised to seven the number of Paleostinians killed in three days of violence in and around Gazoo. Another six people were maimed.
In a statement, the military said the air force had targeted "a global jihad terror operative involved in the planning and execution of a terror attack on Monday, June 18 against Israeli construction workers on the Israel-Egypt border, in which an Israeli civilian was killed."
During Monday's attack along the Egyptian border, at least three hard boyz sneaked into southern Israel from Sinai and ambushed two civilian cars carrying Israeli construction workers, killing one and sparking a firefight in which two of the gunnies died.
The third is understood to have fled back to Egypt.
On Tuesday, a previously unknown Islamist group grabbed credit for the attack in a video message reported by the U.S.-based monitoring service, SITE Intelligence.
The video, which was made by the "Mujahideen Shura Council in the Environs of Jerusalem," showed two gunnies standing in front of al-Qaeda's black flag saying they were poised to carry out an attack against Israel.
One claimed to be from Egypt, while the other said he was from Soddy Arabia
