Israeli warplanes have carried out at least 13 air strikes on the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip, Palestinian sources have told the BBC.

Four of the strikes took place near the town of Khan Younis, where two Israeli soldiers were killed in clashes with Palestinian fighters last week.

The Israeli strikes are the most serious for more than a year, says the BBC's Jon Donnison from Jerusalem.

Three children were reported slightly injured by flying debris.

The director of ambulance and emergency in the Palestinian Ministry of Health, Dr Muawiya Hassanein, said an infant was among the injured.

Witnesses and Hamas officials said the Israeli raids targeted metal workshops , farms, a milk factory and small sites belonging to the military wing of Hamas.

'Retaliation'

Palestinian news agencies reported that Israeli aircraft dropped leaflets over parts of Gaza on Thursday warning residents of retaliation for last Friday's killings of the soldiers in Khan Younis.

The BBC never reports on Hamas terrorists getting their comeuppance, but if a "child" gets even a small scratch they're all over it.

bama won’t be happy ... too bad.

bama doesn’t realize that now that he’s treating Israel like an enemy he can’t have any mitigating influence on what she does to defend herself.

I wonder if the BBC ever reported ANYTHING about even DEAD German children.
