13 dead in 'militant training field' helicopter strike
Israeli helicopters attacked a Hamas training field in Gaza City, killing at least 13 militants and wounding 25 other Palestinians, witnesses said, in the bloodiest incident there in four months.
In a statement, the Israeli military said the air force targeted a field Hamas used to assemble a large bomb and a suicide bomber’s vest, practice hijacking vehicles and train in preparing and firing mortars and rockets. Israel frequently targets Palestinian militants in Gaza air strikes and other military operations.
