Israeli airstrike nails two Qaeda-linked Gaza gunnies
2011-07-06
Israel's air force fired into the Gaza Strip Tuesday, killing two gunnies from an al Qaeda-linked Paleo faction who approached the border fence. The two dead and a cohort injured in the strike belonged to the Tawheed and Jihad group, who have challenged Hamas rule over the sandbox Palestinian enclave.

The Israeli military said it had attacked "a squad of terrorists preparing to launch rockets" across the border.

In another incident, Paleo gunnies fired through the fence at an Israeli military vehicle, slightly injuring the driver.

In a later air strike, the IDF said it targeted a smuggling tunnel in the northern Gaza Strip meant to allow terrorists militants into Israel and said it scored a direct hit. Unfortunately, there were no casualties in the strike.
