Israeli attacks on school, tents and homes kill at least 21 in Gaza

GAZA, Sept 7:  Israeli forces continue to bombard Gaza, killing at least 21 people in strikes on a school, tents and houses.
Two people injured after drone launched from Yemen hits airport in southern Israel.

Two people have been killed and several wounded in an Israeli air strike on a house in Gaza City's Daraj neighbourhood, sources tell Al Jazeera.

A drone launched from Yemen has hit Israel's southern airport, forcing the airspace closure and flight suspension, the Israeli military said.

Israel said the Houthis launched multiple drones, some of which were intercepted outside Israel. At least one hit the passenger hall of Ramon airport near the southern Israeli city of Eilat, according to the Israel Airports Authority.

Israel's Channel 12 reported that four drones were launched from Yemen, but the army was able to detect and intercept only three of them.

Two people were wounded in the attack.

Israeli settlers have opened fire on a group of Palestinians and their property in an attack in the town of Sinjil, northeast of Ramallah, in the occupied West Bank.

Wafa reported that the attack took place as Palestinians were trying to prevent a settler incursion north of the town.
Local sources told Wafa that the settlers had fired bullets through the windows of Palestinian homes and shot at a vehicle. No casualties were reported.

Palestinians in Hebron in the occupied West Bank have demonstrated against Israel's arrest of its mayor, Tayseer Abu Sneineh.
Footage posted on social media and verified by Al Jazeera showed protesters in front of the city's Municipal Council holding a banner demanding Abu Sneineh's release, which they considered a crime against the city and its people.

Israeli forces arrested Abu Sneineh during a raid on his home on Tuesday in a move that drew criticism from the Municipal Council and Hamas, which called it "a continuation of the occupation's brutal and aggressive approach and its targeting of all components of our people".

Israeli forces have bulldozed land in the western area of Farkha village, southwest of Salfit in the occupied West Bank, to expand an settler outpost.

Mustafa Hammad, head of the Farkha village council, told the Wafa news agency that the bulldozing operations were focused on the Jabal al-Batin area as part of Israel's settlement expansion project.    �"AL JAZEERA
