GAZA, December 7, 2015 (WAFA) –
Israeli fighter jets Monday carried out an airstrike targeting a site in Az-Zaytoun
neighborhood in Gaza city, causing severe destruction in the area, according to local
sources.
WAFA correspondent said Israeli
F16 fighters fired at least two missiles at a site in Az-Zaytoun area, causing
severe destruction in the area and spreading fear among local Palestinians, especially
children.
There were no reports of
casualties.
Israel continues to
breach a truce agreement reached between Israel and the Palestinian factions on
August 26, which ended the latest deadly Israeli onslaught on Gaza in the
summer of 2014.
In 2014, Israel
launched a war on Gaza which claimed the lives of about 2,200 Palestinians, and
left more than 10,000 injured. Hundreds of thousands others are currently
displaced and live in makeshift caravans or in UNRWA-run schools.
Since 2007, Israel
has imposed a blockade on Gaza, which has caused a serious decline in the
standard of living, poverty and unprecedented levels of unemployment.
