Israel takes no shit. Period.

(BBC) — A senior Palestinian militant leader has been killed in an Israeli air strike in Gaza, Israeli and Palestinian sources say.

Zohair al-Qaisi, secretary general of the Popular Resistance Committees (PRC), was targeted because he was planning an attack, the Israelis said.

Another militant was also killed.

Palestinian medical sources say a second Israeli raid has killed two more people. There are no details yet on who died.

The PRC, which represents a number of armed factions aligned with Hamas, has carried out several rocket and grenade attacks against Israel.

Palestinian sources said the second militant was Mahmoud Hanani, who was released from an Israeli prison five years ago and sent to Gaza.

The PRC is a coalition of armed factions in Gaza that is loyal to Hamas but sometimes operates separately.
