Israeli aircraft strike Gaza following rocket fire
Israeli military in day two of air raids claims it targeted a weapons factory - Palestinians say they hit a home - in Gaza in retaliation for rocket-fire into south Israel
AP Published in Ahram Online on 11 - 12 - 2011

Israeli and Palestinian officials say Israeli aircraft have struck the Gaza Strip in retaliation for rocket fire into southern Israel.
Palestinian health official Adham Abu Salmia says a missile hit the home of a Gaza militant who was not home at the time, but flying shrapnel wounded a 12-year-old girl and her father in a nearby house.
The Israeli military said in a statement early Sunday that it targeted a weapons factory in response to rockets fired by Palestinian militants. The last rocket to hit Israel struck Saturday night.
The airstrike was the latest development in a days-long round of violence that has raised fears of a wider conflict.
