Palestine-Israel, Military, 9/4/2004

Israeli military helicopters yesterday evening bombarded by missiles a building in one of the refugee camps in the downtown of Gaza, while two Palestinians were killed and other three injured in the sector by the Israeli bullets.

News reports said that one helicopter fired two missiles at least at a building including timber warehouse at the entrance of al-Maghazi camp owned by a Palestinian from Qindil family. No casualties were reported from the incident.

Witnesses said that a fire erupted in the building which was hit directly by two missiles and this inflected heavy casualties in the building and the neighboring ones.

The Israeli raid on the building -- the second within two months -- came after two days of an Israeli attack against two camps in Gaza in what it seems the Israeli response to the twin Palestinian attack in Beer Sheba four days ago.

One young Palestinian was killed yesterday, Friday and other three injured including two in a critical health condition by the fire of the Israeli forces in Rafah to the south of Gaza.

The Israeli forces killed Friday morning one Palestinian who was carrying an explosive near al-Mintar crossing between Gaza and Israel. Witnesses said that an explosion took place after the young man was shot by fire bullets opened by the occupation soldiers.

The Islamic resistance movement, Hamas, announced in a statement that the man is one of its activist and is named Muhammad al-Jaro ( 19 year old) and he was hit while preparing to carry out an attack operation.
