Israeli helicopters attack Palestinian buildings
Israeli helicopters have fired rockets at Palestinian security buildings in the Gaza Strip after Palestinians shelled army bases.
As the violence continues Israel expressed its disappointment at the departure yesterday of US peace envoy Anthony Zinni.
Pressure is mounting on Israel to halt attacks on Palestinian targets.
EU External affairs Commissioner, Chris Patten, said the attacks were restricting Yasser Arafat’s ability to deal with hard-liners.
