Gaza City ( A three-year-old Palestinian girl was killed in a series of retaliatory Israeli strikes )

GAZA CITY: A three-year-old Palestinian girl was killed in a series of retaliatory Israeli strikes on the Gaza Strip. They came shortly after an Israeli man was shot dead by a Gazan sniper while working on the border fence.

 The planes fired at a Hamas training facility in the southern Gaza city of Khan Yunis, with two more strikes reported east of Gaza City and another in the center of the Palestinian enclave.
The Israeli civilian was targeted while he was repairing the Gaza border fence, prompting Israel to warn it would respond “forcefully.”
A spokeswoman for the Soroka hospital in southern Israeli city Beersheba, where the man was taken, told AFP “he arrived dead. We pronounced his death here.”
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned that Israel would respond “forcefully” to the attack. “This is a very severe incident and we will not sit idly by,” he said.
Witnesses in Gaza said Palestinian militants fired mortar rounds at Israeli military vehicles east of the security fence near Nahal Oz, and reported seeing an ambulance evacuate one person.
Ashraf Al-Qudra, a spokesman for the emergency services in the Hamas-run enclave, told AFP an 18-year-old Palestinian was moderately wounded by Israeli fire in the northern-Gaza Beit Lahiya area.
