GAZA CITY, Palestinian Territories: Israeli warplanes on Wednesday killed a woman and three children in a series of strikes east of Gaza City, medics said.

“Four Palestinians were killed in air strikes, including two brothers who are 12- and 13-years-old in Shejaiya, while a four-year-old boy and a woman were killed in a raid on Zeitun,” emergency services spokesman Ashraf Al-Qudra told AFP.

Both neighborhoods are located east of Gaza City, close to the frontier with Israel.
