An Israeli air strike on a car killed two militants and wounded two other men on a crowded Gaza street on Thursday, the Israeli army and local medical officials said. The men were identified as Essam Al-Batsh and Sobhi Al-Batsh, relatives initially identified as brothers. Hundreds of Palestinians crowded around the charred remains of the car, which was hit in the bright afternoon.
A Hamas spokesman described the attack as a crime and accused Israel.
