One Killed by Israeli Missiles in Gaza

The target of the attack was not immediately known, but Israel has been waging war on the Islamic militant group Hamas in retaliation for a deadly suicide bombing that killed 21 people on a Jerusalem bus Aug. 19. Fourteen Palestinians, including at least 10 Hamas members, have now been killed in missile strikes.


In Monday's attack, the missiles hit a small car as it was driving in a crowded side street in downtown Gaza City.


Witness Salman Abu Nour, 42, said he was working in his print shop when the missiles hit. "I rushed outside, and saw a car like a ball of fire. I brought my fire extinguisher and helped people to fight the fire," he said.


The missile strike came as army chief Lt. Gen. Moshe Yaalon was quoted as telling Cabinet that Israel is prepared to send an infantry brigade into the Gaza Strip (news - web sites) to stop Hamas rocket fire.
