Three Palestinians were killed in two Israeli air strikes on the Gaza Strip on Tuesday night, raising the toll in eight days of violence to 197 deaths, medics said.
One strike killed two men in a car in southern Rafah, and a second in central Johr al-Deeq killed one man, emergency services spokesman Ashraf al-Qudra said.
Meanwhile an Israeli civilian was killed by a Hamas Rocket as he was bringing food to an Israeli Army Position. This was the first Israeli casualty since Israel launched “Operation Protective Shield” against Hamas eight days ago.
