Israeli aircraft hit Palestinian's car for incendiary kites' attacks

GAZA, June 17 (KUNA) -- An Israeli missile-equipped drone on Sunday struck and demolished a car for a Palestinian official in charge of attacks with kites bearing inflammable materials.
According to Palestinian sources, the aircraft struck the unoccupied vehicle in Al-Zaytoun district in East Gaza City.
Afchai Adarei, the Israeli Army spokesman, said in statement the air strike targeted a car for a Palestinian chief responsible for flying the kites in direction of Israeli farms.
He accused the Islamic movement, Hamas, of masterminding the kites' recurring attacks.
Palestinian activists have been sending the paper-made kites, bearing molotov cocktails, to the Israeli-occupied areas in retaliation for Israel's recurring aggression on the Palestinians.
Israeli military jets attacked a group of kites' launchers, last night, wounding two.
Israeli troops have recently killed scores of Palestinians, demonstrating along Gaza's demarcation lines. (end) wib.rk
