Islamic Jihad claims responsibility for attack on Gaza-Israel borders

Gaza, June 1 (Xinhua-ANI): The armed wing of Islamic Jihad (Holy War) claimed responsibility for the attack on the borders areas between southeast Gaza Strip and Israel, where an Israeli soldier and a militant were killed.

The group that is called Saraya al-Quds, or al-Quds Brigades, said in a leaflet that Ahmed Abu Nasser, one of its militants was killed after he killed an Israeli soldier during the attack on the Israeli army force at the borders.
