Seven people, including senior Islamic Jihad terrorist Shadi Mohanna, were killed Thursday when an IAF aircraft fired a missile at a vehicle in the Jabalya refugee camp in north Gaza.
Mohamed Kandil, another leading member of the Islamic Jihad in the Strip was also killed in the strike.
The Palestinians claim that five of the victims were civilians. ...
IDF sources claimed that the high number of casualties in the blast was a result of explosives Mohanna carried in his car, which detonated following the missile strike. ...Israel "opened the gates of hell" by killing a senior Islamic Jihad terrorist in Gaza, al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades commander Abu Udai said in response to the attack.
** Well done Israel.
And Israel replied...
Army chief of staff General Dan Halutz was quoted as declaring a "war to the bitter end" against Islamic Jihad after convening a meeting of defense chiefs late Wednesday.
Security sources said Defense Minister Shaul Mofaz gave the green light for the resumption of 'targeted killing' operations against the masterminds of attacks such as the one in Hadera, carried out by a 21-year-old from the northern West Bank village of Qabatiya, near Jenin.
The army also announced a general closure on the West Bank and Gaza Strip.
Jihad said the attack was to avenge the death of their West Bank military leader who was killed in a gunfight with Israeli troops at the weekend.
"We will hit Islamic Jihad very hard. We will not give them any respite," a source close to Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon said.
"We will not allow the West Bank to become a new Iraq and we will use every means possible in our offensive, including targeted operations."
