Permalink Israel expands deadly air strikes on Gaza

Israel on Monday carried out air strikes on Gaza for the fourth successive day, bringing the Palestinian death toll to at least 22. More than 26 have been wounded, including several youths, since the attacks began last Friday.

The cross-border violence has seen the heaviest exchange of fire since Israel’s assault on Gaza in the winter of 2008-09. The latest fighting started Friday when Israeli drones hit a car in Gaza city carrying Zohair al-Qaisi, secretary general of the Popular Resistance Committees (PRC), and Mahmoud al-Hannani, his military escort. The air strike followed the firing of a few rockets by Gazan militants into southern Israel that caused neither injury nor damage. The Israeli military authorities justified their assassination of Qaisi and Hannani with the claim that Qaisi “was among the leaders who planned, funded and directed” the three cross-border attacks into Eilat from Egypt’s Sinai that killed eight Israelis and wounded 25 soldiers last August. The PRC has always denied any involvement in the attacks. Qaisi became the PRC leader after Israel killed his predecessor and five other PRC members in an aerial attack on Gaza following the Sinai incident in August.
