Death In Gaza

Israeli aircraft have bombed a site in Gaza, in the first such action since the declaration of the truce in August. The strike was carried out on a Hamas facility in response to a rocket fired earlier from Gaza, a statement from the Israeli military said. 'Residents of the Khan Yunis area in Gaza reported hearing two explosions, the Associated Press news agency said. The August truce ended seven weeks of fighting that killed more than 2,200 people - most of them Palestinians.' (BBC News, 20 December) Compared with the day to day conflicts of capitalism this will be only considered a minor military clash, but big enough to claim 2,200 lives. RD
