The Israeli Air Force launched a "wide-scale attack" against Hamas military targets in Gaza on Friday, after an Israeli soldier died after being hit by gunfire from the coastal enclave, according to the Israeli military. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said the shooting attack took place Friday during a Palestinian protest along the fence separating Gaza and Israel. It's the first Israeli soldier killed along the Gaza fence since the last war between Israel and Hamas in 2014, the army said. The IDF responded first with tank and artillery fire, killing four people according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health.

Hamas said in a WhatsApp message to journalists that three of the four people killed were members of its armed Qassam Brigades

Israel will be dragged before the UN for war crimes for over excessive response.

Leave it to CNN to describe the Gazan Arabs as “Palestinians.”

Most are either Egyptian or Jordanian refugees. If they don’t want them, why should Israel?

In 2006 I was a member of an Information Management orientation training trip; we went from Tel Aviv to the Israeli-Palestinian and Egyptian boarder. It was was routine day for IDF and they held us back from leaving the road. Our objectives were to understand the importance of Radio Towers and repeaters. Later we performed a Pali radio survey for the UN. Working there gave me some insight about the Political and terrorist activities, attacks and threats to Israel. When Israel gave Gaza to the leadership of the PLO over 10,000 jobs vanished ok overnight when the nursery industry was destroyed by the terrorists.

4 killed in the attack?

When I saw “wide spread” I expected 40 or more.

Exactly. CNN doesn’t have “journalists”; it has “distortionists”.

Thank you for your service. “The nursery industry was destroyed by the terrorists.

That was brutal and shows how the plan of Palestinian state is a empty myth. Nukes need to be dropped in certain cities to stop terrorism once and for all.
