Israeli military forces overran Al Bureij refugee camp in the central part of Gaza Strip in the early hours of Saturday morning.

Eyewitnesses reported that Special Israeli forces broke into the eastern part of the camp under the cover of Israeli aircraft, and opened fire randomly at homes, causing terror for the people living there. Up to the time this report was filed no injuries have been reported.

Eyewitnesses also reported that a group of Palestinian resistance fighters clashed with the Israeli force before their withdrawal from the area.

Earlier on Friday Israeli forces assassinated a young Palestinian man near the Kisuffim border crossing; he was later identified as Tarek abu Jray, 21, from An Nusserat refugee camp in the central part of Gaza Strip.
