The Palestinian movement of Hamas on Wednesday has said two members of its military wing have been killed in clashes with Israeli forces in Gaza Strip. They were killed near the Sufa crossing in the Strip.
Earlier, gunners in Gaza Strip fired a barrage of mortar shells at southern Israel. The shells exploded in open fields in the western Negev, causing no damages or injuries, Haaretz reported. In response to the barrage, Israeli jets attacked a launching site in the northern Strip and identified a hit.
