An Israeli warplane pilot was killed and another was injured after their fighter jet crashed while returning from an air assault on the besieged Gaza Strip on Wednesday.
An Israeli army spokesperson said that an F-16 fighter jet crashed while landing at the Ramon air base, in the Negev desert, according to (IMEMC) newswire.
She said that both members of the crew ejected themselves from the aircraft, with one of the Israeli pilots dying in the crash, while the other was lightly wounded. The spokesperson added that a commission had been opened to determine the cause of the crash.
Israeli airstrikes and artillery shells hit multiple targets in the Gaza Strip, notably near Khan Younis, Beit Lahia and Gaza City. No injuries were reported on either side.
