Israeli strike on Gaza strip amid tensions

Help

Israeli jets have carried out air strikes in the Gaza Strip, injuring at least two Palestinian militants, doctors say.

Israel says its latest air strikes targeted tunnels, a Hamas training centre and a weapons factory in Gaza.

It follows a strike on Saturday which killed five militants.

This was the deadliest attack since Operation Cast Lead - Israel's major offensive in Gaza almost two years ago.

BBC Gaza correspondent, Jon Donnison, says there has been a recent rise in tension along the Gaza-Israel border in recent weeks.
