Stormtroopers drops leaflets over Gaza warning of imminent attack

The Israel Defense Forces on Thursday denied Palestinian reports that its troops had disseminated notices over a residential area of the Gaza Strip warning of an upcoming military strike.

Palestinians reported that Israel dropped thousands of leaflets overnight, warning residents to "wait for the response tomorrow."

Witnesses said the flyers were dropped in several locations on the border of the salient, including the area east of Khan Younis, where two IDF soldiers and two militants were killed in a clash last weekend.

Meanwhile, Israel Navy patrol boats opened fire at a Palestinian fishing vessel off the coast of Gaza early Thursday, an IDF spokesman in Tel Aviv said.

He said the Palestinian boat had strayed into waters off-limits to Palestinian fishermen, and did not heed orders to halt, causing the
Israeli ships to fire warning shots.

There were no reports of injuries or damage. http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/1160408.html
