Tank shell wounds complete family
GAZA, Oct. 6 (Xinhuanet) -- At least 10 Palestinians, eight of them being children, were injured after midnight Wednesday as an Israeli army tank fired a tank shell at their house east of the northern Gaza Strip town of Beit Lahya, Palestinian medics reported.
They said that the emergency room of al Awda Hospital east of Jabalya refugee camp received 10 injured people, among them a father, his brother and eight of his children, with a 4-month-old infant in critical conditions.
Palestinian witnesses said that an Israeli army tank fired a tank shell at the house on Ghazi Felfil east of the town of Beit Lahya in northern Gaza Strip, adding that the 10 family members were all injured. Severe damage was caused to the house.
They added that Israeli army bulldozers razed the land of the family and uprooted trees there, where the soldiers fired a tank shell at their house.
Meanwhile, a leaflet signed by Izzedin al Qassam, Hamas movement's armed wing, said that four militants escaped a possibledeath after an Israeli army drone fired a missile at them, adding that only one of them had been lightly injured.
