At Least Six Killed in Israeli Strike On Alleged Training Camp in Gaza
JERUSALEM, April 7 -- Israeli military aircraft fired on a car carrying suspected gunmen Friday night in the southern Gaza Strip as it left what military officials said was a training camp for members of an armed Palestinian group at war with Israel. At least six people were killed, including two children.
The death toll was one of the largest from an Israeli airstrike in recent years. Hours later, the Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas called the airstrike part of an "unjustified Israeli escalation."
