Israeli F-16 warplanes carried out at least 4 airstrikes in the early hours of Tuesday morning on Rafah and Khan Younis in the Gaza Strip, killing one Palestinian and injuring several others. Mousa Ishtewy, 29, was killed in an airstrike that targeted a group of people east of Al-Zaytoon neighborhood, southeast of Gaza city. Two other Palestinians were heavily injured during the strike and are still being treated. A number of tunnel workers were also injured and transferred to Abu Yusuf Al Najjar hospital, one of them a child, after a strike on one of the Rafah tunnels in the southern Gaza Strip. That increases the number of affected Palestinians in the past 24 hours to one martyr and 7 injured. Local sources said that Israeli fighter ships targeted fishing boats in Rafah but no injuries were reported up to date. Israeli news website \"Yediot Ahronot\" reported that two rockets fell on occupied Bir Al Sabe’e last night but no materialistic or human injuries were reported, pointing out that Israeli forces and fire brigades rushed to the scene of the attacks and sirens could be heard all over the city. The Israeli army Tuesday increased the number of its military checkpoints in the governorate of Hebron, south of the West Bank, according to security sources. Israeli soldiers set up a checkpoint at the entrance of Fawar refugee camp, south of Hebron, stopped all passing vehicles and checked people’s identification. Soldiers also stopped vehicles, hassled people and delayed traffic near Halhoul, north of Hebron, and set up another checkpoint at the western entrance to Hebron city. Meanwhile, Israeli soldiers raided the towns of Tarqumya and Yatta, west and south of Hebron city, and closed off the road to the eastern Carmel area of Yatta.
