The witnesses said the multi-winged aircraft fired a pair of air-to-surface missiles in the direction of Palestinian gunmen on the move on the ground near the passageway of Sofa, killing two and wounding three others.

Earlier today, five Palestinian activists were wounded in an Israeli air raid close to the same crossing, while Hamas fired 21 mortar shells at Israeli troops that had waged an incursion into the area. Hamas said in a statement that the dead and injured were members of its military wing, Izz-Eddine Al-Qssam Brigades, and the Israeli Army reported that an Israeli soldier was wounded during today’s clashes in this region.
