Two unarmed members of Hamas's military wing have been killed and two others wounded in an Israeli airstrike on a security forces training facility in central Gaza.
Israel said the attack was in response to a rocket and mortar which were fired into Israel by militants earlier in the day. Neither of the militant attacks caused any injuries or damage.
Hamas has ceased carrying out rocket attacks on Israel and it's security forces have clamped down on other groups which are continuing such activities. Groups like Islamic Jihad and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine have carried out rocket and mortar attacks on Israel in recent months.
Hamas has confirmed that the two dead men, aged 25 and 27, were active members of the groups military wing and had been involved in succesful attacks on Israeli military forces.
