Palestinian terrorists fired a burst of six more mortar shells into a central Gush Katif community early this morning, significantly damaging at least one house and several cars but causing no injuries. Gaza Coast Regional Head Avner Shimoni says that the children and other residents are suffering psychologically from the continuing bombardments upon their homes.
Earlier, Israeli forces bombed terrorist positions in Khan Yunis, hitting two mortar-firing gangs and killing four other Arabs. Exchanges of fire continue in the Gadid and N\'vei Dekalim areas this morning. Over a dozen mortar shells have been fired at Gush Katif towns in the past two days, wounding two children. Palestinian gunfire was directed at soldiers last night in several Gaza locations; no one was hurt, and IDF soldiers returned fire. In another IDF offensive, soldiers entered the PA-controlled town of Halhoul, near Hevron, and made several arrests.
