GAZA CITY (Ma'an) -- Multiple Israeli airstrikes on the Gaza Strip have killed four people and injured eight since late Tuesday, medics said.
Early Wednesday, Israeli warplanes struck a target in Rafah, killing Muhammad al-Sheikh, 32, a member of the PRC's military wing the Nasser Saladin Brigades.
One other person was also injured.
Israel's army said it was targeting a launching squad which moments earlier had fired a rocket at southern Israel.
At midnight, an airstrike on Beit Lahiya in Gaza's north killed Ismail al-Tally, a member of Hamas' al-Qassam Brigades, and injured three others, Gaza Health Ministry spokesman Ashraf al-Qidra told Ma'an.
Another overnight strike in an area northwest of Beit Lahiya killed Loai Abed al-Hakeen Abu Jarad, 24, and Yousef Abu Jalhoum, al-Qidra said. One other person was seriously wounded.
Israel's army said it targeted a squad in the northern Gaza Strip "during its final preparations to fire rockets towards southern Israel."
Hamas officials also reported Israeli tanks firing into Gaza. A military spokesman confirmed that report. more
