Israeli airstrike kills fighters in Gaza

( 0 Votes ) 

gazaRamallah - An Israeli air strike in the Gaza Strip has killed three Palestinians who were associated with Islamic Jihad, the group said.

The Israeli military had no immediate comment on Tuesday's attack, which Islamic Jihad said in a statement targeted its members as they "resisted an Israeli military incursion" into Rafah, a town bordering Egypt.

The attack comes after a Palestinian man died following a car chase with Israeli police near Tulkarem in the northern part of the occupied West Bank, Palestinian sources said on Tuesday.

Another Palestinian, a 20-year-old student, was shot dead by Israeli soldiers near Ramallah on Monday night, the Israeli military confirmed.

Fida Majadleh was killed after his car veered off the road near Jbara checkpoint, south of Tulkarem, during the chase, according to [Arabic] Tulkarem Governor Abdullah Kamil.

There was no immediate comment from the Israeli army, but the police described the incident as a traffic accident, and said Majadleh's car, which was stolen from Israel, hit another vehicle.

Late on Monday night, 20-year-old Saji Darwish, a second year student at Birzeit University, was shot near Ramallah. Clashes following his death left five Palestinians wounded.

The Israeli army said he was part of a group of Palestinians throwing stones at settler cars between the villages of Beiten and Deir Debwan, just outside of Ramallah.
