By WTOP Staff

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) — Palestinian officials say Israeli naval fire has killed four youths and wounded seven other people on a coastal road near a beach in the Gaza Strip.

Gaza Health Ministry spokesman Ashraf Al Kedra says the four killed today were all under the age of 18, and some adults were wounded.

The strike follows a resumption of Israeli bombings and Hamas rocket attacks after the failure of an Egyptian attempt to forge a cease-fire in the 9-day conflict.
