Israeli Planes Raid Gaza Strip

Israeli warplanes raided the Gaza Strip early Tuesday, witnesses and the Israeli military said.

The air raid targeted a tunnel dug under the border between the south of the Strip and Egypt, near Rafah, the Palestinian witnesses said.

The Israeli army confirmed the target saying "aircraft attacked a tunnel used by smugglers".

There were no casualties reported in the raid.

Two explosions also shook Gaza City. The source of the blasts was not immediately clear.

A woman was slightly wounded when a rocket fired from the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip crashed into southern Israel late on Monday, an army spokeswoman said earlier.
