GAZA, (PIC)-- Israeli warplanes launched a series of air raids on southern and northern Gaza Strip at dawn Wednesday leaving 15 citizens including women and children wounded, Palestinian sources reported.

They said that the American-made warplanes fired three missiles at the former civil defense premises in Gaza airport and the border area with Egypt, claiming to target tunnels.

An F-16 fired two other missiles at a training site for the Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of Hamas, in Beit Hanun, northern Gaza, wounding a Qassam member and a policeman while inflicting big damage on nearby houses.

The ambulance and emergency unit in the military medical service in Gaza Strip said that 15 citizens, including women and children, were wounded in the raid in northern Gaza.

It denounced the targeting of unarmed civilians in obvious violation of the international law that prohibits targeting and terrorizing civilians.
