At least 11 Palestinians killed in day of war in Gaza

===> "Security officials said IDF forces spotted a terrorist cell attempting to infiltrate Israel west of Kibbut Nachal Oz. The soldiers opened fire and shot and killed a number of the infiltrators and spotted others attempting to flee in a vehicle back into Gaza.

The soldiers alerted a helicopter team in the area, which pursued the car and fired rockets, hitting it. The officials were unable to confirm the identities or affiliations of the Palestinians killed despite reports claiming that among the dead is senior Hamas commander Imad Akel." <===

Also from the article: ===> "Earlier Monday, IAF helicopters and an F16 warplane pounded a bomb factory; a weapons warehouse; a vehicle containing two terrorists in charge of the manufacture of Kassam rockets, mortar shells and explosives used in attacks against Israel; and a second vehicle containing Hamas terrorists.

Khaled Said Matsri, 36, and Iyad Fayez al Hilu, 28, who rode in a pickup truck loaded with explosives and weapons, were killed when rockets hit their car. Marwan al Khatib, 35, who drove in a vehicle behind them, died shortly after from injuries he sustained in the attack. According to Palestinian media reports, casualties from all the air strikes have left at least nine Palestinians dead and over eighty civilians wounded, many of them women and children." <===

There should not be any complaints from the Palestinians. According to the polls, most Palestinians celebrate civilian injuries and death.
