Saladin Brigades fire three mortar shells at Israeli troops in Jabaliya

GAZA, May 2 (KUNA) -- Saladin Brigades, the military wing of the Popular Resistance Committees, fired three 100mm mortar shells at Israeli forces executing an incursion into eastern Jabaliya, northern Gaza Strip, the brigades said in a statement.
In spite of the heavy hovering of the Israeli surveillance planes, the group of activists returned safely to base, the brigade said.
The attack is in response to the repetitive Israeli incursions, the brigades added.
Earlier today, the Israeli tanks struck the farm lands located east of Jabaliya with a great number of mortar shells without causing life loses among the Palestinian farmers.
Also, an Israeli army spokesperson announced earlier that two Palestinian missiles hit southern Israel, however no casualties or damage were reported. (pickup previous) mzt.mar KUNA 021033 May 09NNNN
