Israeli raids kill child, newlywed youth

GAZA– Israeli warplanes continued their killing streak in Gaza on Sunday and killed a Palestinian fighter at dawn only two days after his wedding and a 12-year-old child.
The higher committee for ambulance and emergency in Gaza said in a statement that the child Ayub Asaliya was killed in an Israeli raid on Sunday morning to the east of Jabalia in northern Gaza, adding that another man was injured in the raid by an Israeli drone.
A resistance fighter was killed at the early dawn hours in Zaitun suburb east of Gaza city.
Medical sources told the PIC that the body of Ahmed Salem was scattered into pieces in the bombing and medical teams could only retrieve his body three and a half hours after his death while two others were wounded.
The armed wing of the popular resistance committees said that Salem was one of its cadres, adding that an Israeli drone plane fired a missile at his position killing him instantly and injuring two others.
The PIC reporter noted that Salem was one of the newlywed 500 couples in the mass wedding organized in Gaza on Thursday.
The armed wing said that an earlier Israeli raid targeted its fighters to the east of Beit Hanun, north of the Gaza Strip, at a late hour on Saturday and that one of them was slightly wounded while the others escaped unharmed.
The Israeli raids killed 17 Palestinians since Friday and wounded more than 30 others.
