(NSI News Source Info) December 25, 2008: Palestinian militants prepared to fire missiles into Israel, in eastern Gaza. The military wing of Hamas, the Islamist group that controls Gaza, said in a statement that the rocket fire was 'a response to Zionist aggression in Gaza and West Bank' and to the economic embargo Israel has imposed on Gaza. An Israeli force killed three Hamas gunmen on Tuesday in a clash close to the border fence in northern Gaza.
Israelis reacted to a rocket attack in the southern city of Ashkelon. More than 60 rockets and mortars were fired at southern Israel by the afternoon, the Israeli military said. The strikes caused extensive damage and widespread panic among the residents, but no serious injuries
