GAZA CITY-An "Israeli" air strike killed a local leader of the armed-wing of the Islamic Hamas Resistance movement in the Gaza Strip in the southern border town of Egypt, Palestinian medics said.
Mohammed Harb, leader of the Ezzedine al-Qassam Brigades for Rafah, and one of his deputies were martyred when an "Israeli" missile struck their car.
According to Palestinian medics and the group two other Ezzedine al-Qassam Brigades members were martyred when two "Israeli" missiles slammed into their jeep earlier in the night.
The attack took place near Rafah and the border with Egypt, through which hundreds of thousands of Gazans have been streaming since the border fence was blown up on Tuesday, breaking a week-long Zionist blockade.
On Thursday, two Palestinians were killed in an attack on a Zionist settlement in the West Bank while an "Israeli" police officer was shot dead by Palestinian firing in east Al-Quds, medics said.
The deaths bring to 6,102 the number of people killed in "Israeli"-Palestinian violence since 2000, the vast majority of them Palestinians, according to media count.
