An Israeli helicopter fired missiles at an unknown target in a Gaza refugee camp tonight, wounding five Palestinians, including militants, medics said.

The attack on Khan Younis refugee camp, often a target of Israeli raids, occurred a day after militants killed 16 Israelis in twin bus bombings in the southern town of Beersheba.

All four missiles fired hit a street near a hospital in the camp.

Minutes after the strike, Israeli tanks and military vehicles rolled into the camp and opened heavy fire, witnesses said.
