GAZA MORTAR ATTACK KILLS ISRAELI !

A mortar attack fired into Israel from the Gaza Strip has killed an Israeli, police and medics have said.
The victim was hit in the kibbutz of Kfar Aza, near the border with Gaza.
Palestinian militants frequently fire rockets and mortars at Israel from the Gaza Strip. The attacks often provoke retaliation by the Israeli military.
Earlier on Friday, medical workers said they had found the body of a Palestinian woman killed in fighting between Palestinians and Israelis.
Palestinian witnesses said the woman died after her house in southern Gaza was shelled by an Israeli tank.
The Israeli army has not commented, but said earlier its operation had targeted Palestinian militants.

The Gaza Strip has been controlled by the Palestinian militant group Hamas since last June when they ousted their rivals from the Fatah movement.
Three people were wounded by the mortar attack on Kfar Aza, officials said.
Hamas claimed the attack, the Associated Press news agency said, citing a radio station run by the militants.
David Baker, a spokesman for the Israeli government, said Hamas was responsible for all hostile fire into Israel.
"We hold it accountable for today's attack and the murder of our civilians," he said.
