Israeli Military Kills 4 in Gaza, Arrests 100+ Women in West Bank Sweep 
------------------------------------------------------------------------



In Israel and the Occupied Territories, the U.S.-backed Israeli military
is continuing military operations in both the West Bank and Gaza Strip.
On Thursday, Israeli soldiers stormed the West Bank village of Awarta
and arrested more than 100 women. Israel says it was pursuing suspects
in the recent killings of Israeli settlers. The Israeli military also
bulldozed homes in the village of Tubas. Meanwhile, at least four
Palestinians, including two civilians, were killed today in Israeli air
strikes on Gaza. The bombing came after a Palestinian rocket struck an
Israeli school bus, injuring two.
