GAZA, June 22 (KUNA) -- Israeli airplanes launched two rockets early on
Wednesday towards eastern sectors of the town of Deir Al-Balah in the center
of Gaza Strip.
The rockets fell adjacent to one of Deir Al-Balah cemeteries, causing a
deep crater in the ground, with no casualties, local radios reported.
Israeli Army said this attack targeted a tunnel, dug by Palestinian
militants close to the borders with Israel, allowing them to infiltrate to
Israel.
Radio Israel quoted a spokesman of the army as saying that this raid came
in response to a Palestinian missile attack, last night, targeting Negev
desert in southern Israel.
The rocket harmlessly crashed into the compound of a local government
authority building in the town of Eshkol. (end)
