“Israeli” warplanes bomb Gaza supply tunnels

"Israeli" warplanes have targeted and attacked a number of supply tunnels in the Gaza Strip in what the "Israeli" military said was retaliation for Palestinian rocket fire into southern "Israel".

Witnesses and medics said nine air raids struck supply tunnels on the border between the blockaded coastal sliver of Gaza and Egypt. The aerial assaults wounded at least three people and damaged homes in the area.

Gaza still suffers from the aftermath of the massive "Israeli" onslaught from December 2008 to January 2009. More than 1,400 Palestinians were killed during three weeks of "Israeli" land, sea, and air assaults in "Operation Cast Lead ". The offensive also inflicted $1.6 billion damage to the Gazan economy amid already harsh conditions due to the "Israeli" blockade imposed on the enclave.
