Three Palestinian citizens were wounded on Thursday morning in an Israeli incursion east of Shujaiah suburb in Gaza city, medical sources said.

Dr. Ashraf Al-Qudra, the Health Ministry’s spokesman, said that Israeli army tanks fired a number of shells wounding the three citizens, describing their injuries as serious to moderate.

Local sources said that Israeli occupation soldiers mounting a number of armored vehicles had advanced into the same targeted area and bulldozed land amidst indiscriminate firing.

The sources said that an Israeli artillery shell fired at a civilian car in Shujaiah caused the casualties.
