Exterior of hospital STORYLINE The Israeli Defence Force (IDF) carried out an airstrike on a suspected Hamas target on Friday night in Gaza City. The strike hit the Shejaya neighbourhood of Gaza City. There were unconfirmed reports that several people were injured in the strike. Several people were taken to Shifa Hospital in Gaza City. A source in the Israeli military, speaking on condition of anonymity and quoted by Israeli media, said that Hamas had suffered dozens of fatalities during the previous 48 hours of Israeli airstrikes, but was trying to cover up these losses. Israeli missiles came screeching down on Gaza at least five times on Friday in retaliation for Hamas rocket attacks that have sent southern Israel into a state of panic. At least 13 rockets fell throughout the day, injuring four people in the rocket-scarred town of Sderot. In all, at least 20 Palestinians have died in Israeli airstrikes that began on Tuesday.
