Israel Carries Out Air Strike On Gaza

February 19, 2012

At least two Palestinians were wounded on the evening of February 18 in an Israeli air strike in southern Gaza City.

Israel's military confirmed the attack and said it targeted a "weapons manufacturing site" in Gaza City's Zeitun neighborhood.

The Israeli military said the strike was in retaliation to several rockets fired into southern Israel since February 17.

Medics in Gaza said the two people wounded were bystanders and described their injuries as "moderate."
