Seven Palestinians are killed in Israeli air strikes on Gaza after killing of Islamic Jihad members by Israel triggered fighting
The father of Palestinian Zaki Ghanama, 25, mourns over his body at the morgue of a hospital in Beit Lahia in the northern Gaza Strip on November 12, 2019.
In all, seven Palestinians have been killed in Tuesday’s fighting, the worst bout in recent months, according to the health ministry. The group said commander Bahaa Abu al Atta and his wife were killed in an airstrike in Gaza and their children were wounded, while the home of senior Islamic Jihad member Akram al Ajouri was targeted in Damascus, killing one of his sons.
Conricus called Abu al-Atta "ticking time bomb", saying he had been responsible for a number of recent rocket attacks on southern Israel and claiming that he was actively planning new attacks. Air raid sirens continued to go off throughout the morning as far away as Holon and Rishon LeZion, two suburbs of Tel Aviv.
