JERUSALEM, Aug. 22 -- A four-year-old boy was killed on Friday evening by a mortar attack on southern Israel, Magen David Adom, Israel's Red Cross, told to Xinhua.
The child was killed when a mortar barrage launched from the Gaza Strip hit a car near a kindergarten in Sdot Negev Regional Council near the Israel-Gaza border, said a spokesperson with the Israeli military.
It is the first Israeli casualty since a fresh round of fighting between Israel and Hamas, the Islamist group who dominates Gaza, had started on Tuesday.
Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed a tough response to the killing, saying "Hamas will pay a heavy price for this terror attack."
