An Israeli air strike late Wednesday night killed one Palestinian in the northern Gaza strip, medical officials and witnesses said. An Israeli military spokesman in Tel Aviv confirmed the attack, DPA reported. Three other Palestinians were wounded in the strike, which took place east of the Jebaliya refugee camp. The fatality was identified as Ghassan al-Taramssi, 23, a member of the Islamic Jihad organization. His death brings to seven the number of Palestinians killed since Tuesday night, when an Israeli force entered the Strip to destroy a 250-metre-long tunnel being dug at the border.
