JERUSALEM - The militants who killed seven Israelis in a series of attacks on southern Israel came from the Gaza

Hamas denies involvement in the attacks

Defence Minister points finger Gaza Strip after seven Israelis killed in series of attacks on southern Israel.

 

 

 Strip, the Israeli premier's spokesman said on Thursday as the Jewish state vowed to respond.

"We have specific and concrete info that these terrorists who killed Israelis today came from the Gaza Strip," Mark Regev said.

"This is not speculation. This is evaluation; this is analysis; this is concrete information."

Speaking on condition of anonymity, an Israeli official said the militants had entered Israel through Egypt's Sinai peninsula.

"They left Gaza, they went south into Sinai, they hung around in Sinai then they went north into Israel," he said. "We've seen this modus operandi before."

Earlier, Defence Minister Ehud Barak pointed the finger at the Hamas-run Gaza Strip and vowed that Israel would respond.

"The source of the terror incidents is Gaza and we will act against them with all our strength and determination," he said in a statement.

The incident reflected the weakness of Cairo's hold on the Sinai peninsula, where Egyptian troops began a massive operation to clamp down on militants at the weekend, he said.

"This is a very serious terror incident at a number of locations. The incident reflects the weakness of the Egyptian hold on Sinai and the expansion of activity there by terror elements."

However, the Hamas government in the Gaza Strip denied any role in multiple attacks in southern Israel that left at least five people dead.

"The Palestinian government denies the accusations made by (Israeli Defence Minister Ehud) Barak about the operation in Eilat and affirms that there is no relation between the Gaza Strip and what happened near Eilat," Hamas spokesman Taher al-Nunu said.

"These accusations are an attempt to distract from the Israeli domestic crisis," Nunu said, referring to protests over the cost of living that have shaken Israel in recent weeks.

The attacks, which took place on two desert roads some 15 kilometres (nine miles) north of Eilat, saw gunmen rake a bus with gunfire, then mount two other attacks with a roadside bomb and a rocket-propelled grenade.

Media reports said seven Israelis had been killed, while medics said at least 25 were wounded.
