Two Palestinians were killed and some others injured in an Israeli airstrike on northern Gaza Strip town of Beit Hanoon, medical officials said on Tuesday.
Gaza emergency spokesman, Ashraf al-Qedra, told reporters that Musa’ab Za’aneen, 21 and a Palestinian from Beit Hanoon, was killed in an Israeli airstrike on the town.
He said three others were wounded, including a child.
Al-Qedra added that one of the three wounded Palestinians, who were in critical condition, died later of his wounds in the hospital.
This had led to the death toll of the Israeli airstrike climbing to two killed and two wounded.
He said that the second Palestinian who died of his wounds was identified as Yousef Nasser, 31 and resident of the town.
It was not known, however, if Za’aneen or Nasser were militants.
But witnesses said the Israeli airstrike on the town was carried out shortly after unknown militants launched a home-made rocket from the area on southern Israel. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
