2 Killed in Aircraft Blast in Gaza City
2006-10-13
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) - An Israeli aircraft fired a missile at a building in a crowded Gaza City neighborhood after nightfall Thursday, killing a girl and a terrorist militant, Palestinians said.

The Israeli airstrike targeted a house of a Hamas commander in the Shajaiyeh section of Gaza City, near the border with Israel, witnesses said. Doctors said the dead girl was about 10 years old and the dead terrorist militant was the brother of the terrorist owner of the targeted house. Seven people were wounded, including children, doctors said.

Palestinians said the customary warning to evacuate the house was not given this time by the army.
Good, 'bout time that nonsense ended.
The Israeli military said the owner of the house, Ashraf Farawana, is a Hamas terrorist leader who was involved in attacks against Israel and supplying weapons to Hamas terrorists militants.
