ISRAELI warplanes pummelled the Gaza Strip today, causing damage to buildings and infrastructure, as Tel Aviv intensifies pressure on the Palestinian people in the wake of last week’s daring jailbreak from Gilboa prison.

Missiles struck a site near the al-Maghazi refugee camp in the early hours of the morning, according to the Palestinian Safa news agency.

Israeli helicopters also attacked a site to the west of Khan Younis, a city in southern Gaza, while warplanes bombed a coastal road west of Rafah on the Egyptian border.
