Child Injured in Gaza Strike Dies of Wounds

 

GAZA, December 9, 2011 (WAFA) – A 10-year-old child severely wounded earlier in the day from an Israeli air strike died late Friday, according to Gaza hospital sources.

 

They said Ramadan Za’lan died of wounds sustained when his family’s house collapsed when three Israeli missiles hit an alleged nearby Hamas training base in northern Gaza.

 

The child’s father, Bahjat Za’lan, 38, died immediately when their house collapsed as a result of the strike.

 

Za’lan’s 30-year-old wife, his 58-year-old mother and his four children, aged 10, 8, 5 and six months, were severely injured in the incident and so were residents of a nearby house, which also collapsed in the strike.
