Iran leader vows response to Israel after attacks

VACCINATION CENTRE HIT

Since Oct 6, Israeli forces have carried out a major air and ground assault in north Gaza, centred on the Jabalia area, vowing to stop Hamas from regrouping.

Two rockets were fired into Israel from the area on Saturday, the military said, the first such attack in weeks.

The World Health Organization (WHO) said four children were among six people wounded in a strike on a polio vaccination centre in north Gaza, where UN agencies have spoken of “apocalyptic” conditions in the face of a blistering Israeli assault.

WHO chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, said the agency had received “an extremely concerning report” that the Sheikh Radwan health centre “was struck today while parents were bringing their children to the life-saving polio vaccination” drive.

Tedros did not specify who carried out the strike but a source in Gaza’s civil defence agency told AFP that it was “an Israeli quadcopter that fired two missiles which hit the wall of Sheikh Radwan clinic”.

The Israeli military did not immediately comment.

Israel’s military said dozens of militants were killed around Jabalia “in aerial and ground activity”.

Medics and Gaza’s civil defence agency reported three people were killed in a strike on Nuseirat, in central Gaza.

“We came out and there were planes and gunfire above us,” said Ashraf Abdullah, describing the victims as “all torn to pieces”.

After nearly a year of tit-for-tat exchanges across Israel’s northern border, Israel escalated its bombing campaign against Hezbollah targets in Lebanon on Sep 23 and later sent in ground troops.

Hezbollah has since fired more deeply into Israel.

A strike in the coastal plain north of Tel Aviv wounded 19 people, four of them moderately, police said on Saturday.

Hezbollah said it had again launched rockets at Israel’s Glilot intelligence base near Tel Aviv, and also claimed rocket fire against “military industries” in the Haifa area.
