2 Palestinians Wounded in Israeli Attack on Gaza

HeadlineMar 19, 2010

Meanwhile, in Israel and the Occupied Territories, the Israeli government has launched new attacks on the Gaza Strip. A series of Israeli missiles hit Gaza overnight, leaving at least two Palestinians wounded. The attack follows a Palestinian rocket attack that killed a foreign guest worker inside Israel. Militants said the rocket attack was retaliation for the ongoing Israeli crackdown on protests on the West Bank. On Thursday, a group of Palestinian children were detained after throwing rocks at Israeli soldiers. An unidentified resident of Hebron said his son was seized by Israeli soldiers.

Hebron resident: “My children were playing soccer in front of the house, and they came again and took them and said they were throwing stones. They say they have pictures of them throwing stones. The army are liars.”
