Five Palestinians wounded in IAF strike in central Gaza Strip
By Amos Harel, Haaretz Correspondent, and News Agencies

Israel Air Force craft struck a car in the central Gaza Strip on Monday, wounding five people, including three militants.

Among the wounded were three militants - two from Islamic Jihad and a third from the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, the military wing of Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah faction.

Two passers-by were also hurt in the strike, which ambulance staff said occurred about 10 kilometers south of Gaza City.

Islamic Jihad said that the Al-Aqsa member wounded in the attack was the group's commander in Gaza. Two other militants in the vehicle, one from Islamic Jihad and the other from Al-Aqsa, escaped unscathed.

The Israel Defense Forces confirmed carrying out a strike but did not give details of the target, other than to say the attack was part of operations against terrorist activity.
