<p>Israel has bombed the Gaza Strip for the third night
running, allegedly in response to rocket fire from the
Palestinian territory. According to <i>Wafa</i>,
Israeli aircraft bombed a "Hamas site" to the east of
Beit Lahiya in the north of Gaza, causing a fire and
destroying the target as well as nearby homes.</p>
<p>The Israelis also bombed a site to the west of Deir
Al-Balah in the middle are of the territory, as well as
a site to the east of Rafah in the south. Again, the
targets are reported to have been destroyed, and
adjoining properties have been damaged. There were no
reports of any casualties.</p>
<p>The so-called Israel Defence Forces confirmed the
attacks. "The IDF will continue to respond to terror [<i>sic</i>]
efforts from the Gaza Strip," it said.</p>
<p>The Palestinians have a legitimate right to resist
Israel's military occupation with whatever means are at
their disposal. Rockets fired from the Gaza Strip are
part of the Palestinian response to the Israeli
occupation.</p>
<p>Tension between Israel and the Palestinians has risen
over the past week, ever since six Palestinians escaped
from a maximum security Israeli prison last Monday.
Israeli forces have since recaptured four of the
escapees.</p>
<p>Home to more than 2 million people, the Gaza Strip has
been under a crippling Israeli siege since 2007, which
has created a humanitarian crisis in the coastal
enclave.</p>
