GAZA/JERUSALEM, Nov. 12 -- The Israeli army launched airstrikes on the Gaza Strip on Monday evening, killing at least three and injuring dozens others, in response to the massive rocket attacks from the coastal enclave.
Ashraf al-Qedra, spokesman of the health ministry in Gaza, told reporters that the three killed Palestinians were identified as 27-year-old Mohamed al-Tatari, 22-year-old Mohamed Oudeh and 23-year-old Hammad al-Nahal.
Eyewitnesses said a house was targeted by Israeli war jets in the town of Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip.
A short statement by the joint operation room of militant groups, including Hamas, confirmed the attacks.
"The Palestinian armed resistance on Monday evening fired scores of rockets from the Gaza Strip on the settlements of the enemy," the statement said.
It also vowed to "increase... intensive strikes" on Israel if it "keeps up its aggression."
Meanwhile, Israeli authorities said at least 100 rockets, mortars and anti-tank missiles were launched toward southern Israel in about one hour in the evening, injuring 12 people.
The David Magen Adom emergency service said a 19-year-old young man was "in a serious condition with multi-system injuries."
At least 11 more people were wounded by broken glasses or other materials as they ran for shelter during the bombing, the emergency service added.
In a special statement, the Israeli army instructed residents near Gaza as well as in cities as far as Beersheba and Ashdod, some 40 km south of Tel Aviv, to stay indoors or in protected areas.
