An Israeli air strike in the Gaza Strip on Thursday killed a Palestinian and injured two others, Palestinian medical workers. Israel launched the attack shortly after Palestinian fighters attacked an Israeli army patrol on the Israel-Gaza border but caused no casualties, an Israeli military spokesman said, according to Reuters.

 

In this incident, two Palestinian girls were hurt when Israelis returned fire, said Palestinian medical workers in the Gaza Strip. Palestinians said the activist killed in the air strike belonged to the Islamic Jihad group.
