Israeli warplanes raid two neighborhoods in Gaza

Gaza, July 20 (KUNA) -- Israeli warplanes raided, early Wednesday, Al-Zaytoon and Shujaaiya neighborhoods south and south eastern Gaza Strip.
F-16 warplanes struck an empty area in Shujaaiya, in addition to a site in Al-Zaytoon used by Hamas' Ezziddeen Al-Qassam brigades. The raids caused material damage but no casualties, local sources told KUNA.
The Israeli Army meanwhile reported that a Palestinian missile was launched yesterday from the strip to hit the Negev, southern Israel.
A Qassam missile targeted an uninhibited area in Sdot Negev in the Negev desert in southern Israel, a spokesman of the Israeli Army told Radio Israel. The missile attack did not cause any casualties or material damage, he added.
The Permanent Representative of Israel to the United Nations sent an urgent letter to the UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, condemning continuous Palestinian missile attacks from Gaza on targets in Israel.(end) mzt.lb KUNA 201140 Jul 11NNNN
