Israeli airstrike targets Palestinian youths north of Gaza

Saturday 9-June-2018

A group of Palestinian youths survived an Israeli airstrike in Beit Hanoun north of the Gaza Strip on Saturday afternoon.

Local sources reported that an Israeli drone fired one missile at a group of Palestinian youths without resulting in any casualties.

A spokesman for the Israeli occupation army claimed that an Israeli drone carried out a warning shot against a group of Palestinian youths in northern Gaza who were preparing to launch flaming kites and balloons toward neighboring Israeli settlements.

He continued to say that the Israeli army will act to prevent the use of flaming kites in all possible ways.

The Israeli army has failed to stop the use of flaming kites launched by peaceful protesters in Gaza on almost a daily basis in response to the Israeli crimes.

In another context Hebrew media sources reported that the Israeli army on Saturday arrested a Palestinian who broke through the eastern border fence into Nahal Oz area in the 1948 occupied territories and found a slingshot in his possession.
