(KUNA) -- Israeli warplanes fired three missiles at a Palestinian national security site east of Rafah in southern Gaza Strip, Palestinian security sources said Thursday. The missiles crashed into the site located near Gaza International Airport inflicting major damage to buildings surrounding the site, which were shelled three times over the past few years. The attack did not sustain any human losses, the sources said.
In related developments, Israeli forces blew up three tunnels they found south of Rafah last night. The Israeli radio quoted today military sources saying that the Israeli Army blew up two tunnels near Al-Dehniya village in the southern part of the Strip and a third one near Sofa crossing north of Rafah. The tunnels are used by Palestinians to smuggle weapons into Gaza, the source added. |
