Israeli air strikes in Gaza (8 images)

An Israeli air strike targeted tunnels used to smuggle fuel into Gaza from Egypt. The strikes began shortly after an anti-tank rocket hit a bus in western Negev, critically injuring a 16-year-old Israeli boy. Five Palestinians were killed and at at least 40 were injured in the attacks.
