font size    

Israeli aircrafts hit two houses that belong to Palestinian militants Wednesday night during two separate airstrikes and there were no reports of casualties, witnesses and security sources said.

Witnesses said an Israeli Apache helicopter gunships fired one rocket at a house belong to a member of the Popular Resistance Committees (PRC) in the Beach Refugee camp in western Gaza City.

The Israeli army informed by telephone the house owners to leave it just half an hour before the house was targeted, they added.

Another airstrike was carried out when two air-to-ground rockets were fired at a house of a senior militant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), said Palestinian security sources.

The two houses were completely destroyed and no injuries were reported in both incidents, the sources added.

The Israeli attacks came after Palestinian militants launched homemade rockets from the northern Gaza Strip at southern Israeli town of Sderot Wednesday morning, which killed one woman and seriously wounded two others.
