RAFAH, Gaza - Palestinian hospital officials say 15 people were wounded in overnight Israeli airstrikes in the Gaza Strip.

The airstrikes came after the Israeli military reported that Palestinian militants on Tuesday had blown up a donkey cart filled with dynamite near the concrete wall that separates Gaza from Israel and fired several mortar rounds into Israel. No Israelis were injured.
