Israel jetfighters launch air strikes on Gaza

GAZA, March 16 (KUNA) -- Israeli warplanes launched airstrikes on several targets to Palestinian factions in Gaza strip Wednesday midnight.
The fighter jets hit Palestinian military target in the central city of Dair Al-Balah. The strikes caused material damage to the site buildings and panic among local population in the surrounding area, eyewitnesses told KUNA. The Israeli aircraft also launched a number of airstrikes in open areas eastern the densely-populated Palestinian territory, locals said. The warplanes are still roaring across the skies over the enclave.
Earlier, a rocket fired from Gaza landed in an Israeli settlement neighboring Gaza strip without causing human or material damage. (end) wb.ibi
