STORYLINE

Israeli apache fired two missiles early on Friday, hitting an office of Hamas lawmakers in the Al- Sheikh Zaied neighbourhood of the city of Beit Lahiya in the northern Gaza Strip.

No injuries were reported.

Israeli aircraft also targeted a group of militants early on Friday in the centre of Gaza Strip.

One Palestinian arrived at hospital suffering from a shock.

The aircraft fired a missile at a bridge near Al- Zahra city.

The bridge connects the southern and central parts of the Gaza Strip.

Meanwhile, a Palestinian was killed when an Israeli tank shell hit his truck on early Friday, hospital officials said, and Israeli aircraft struck targets in several parts of Gaza.

Palestinians said the truck took a wrong turn and approached Israeli forces in central Gaza.

A tank fired a shell, hitting the vehicle.

The driver escaped, but a passenger was wounded and later died.

The Israeli military said the truck drove within 30 metres (yards) of an Israeli position and ignored orders to stop.

Then a tank fired a shell at the truck, hitting it.

Israeli forces have been operating inside Gaza since June 28, after Palestinian militants tunnelled under the border and attacked an Israeli army post at a crossing, killing two soldiers and capturing a third.

Since the offensive began, 86 Palestinians and one Israeli soldier have been killed, including a 10-year-old Palestinian child who died in a hospital on Friday, four days after being wounded in Beit Lahiya, a village in northern Gaza, officials said.
