A Hamas gunman is taken to a hospital in the Gaza Strip but it's too late.

He was dead on arrival, killed in an air strike by Israeli forces in retaliation for rocket attacks from the Palestinian territory.

Medics say two people were also wounded in air strikes on at least six other Gaza targets.

The Israeli military says these men were targeted because they were spotted just about to fire a rocket across the border.

Militants have fired at least 62 rockets at Israel since June, Israeli forces say, but there have been few injuries.

In Gaza, Israeli air strikes have totalled more than 80 this month, killing three people and wounding more than a dozen others.
