Blockade NewsWorld in Brief: drink-driver blamed for deaths of tourists in Madrid<b>Gaza City</b> Israeli forces killed six members of the Islamist movement Hamas during overnight airstrikes on Gaza. The attacks were in response to a bomb attack on Saturday in which 13 Israeli soldiers were wounded when two vehicles were blown up at a border crossing that is used to take humanitarian supplies into Gaza. Major General Yoav Galant said that Hamas may have intended to kidnap Israeli soldiers, adding that the bombings were “a deliberate attack against aiding the Palestinian population”.
