VOA News Israel's air raids into populated civilian areas of the Gaza Strip against suspected Palestinian militants this week have stirred an emotional debate. Palestinian leaders have condemned the raids, but Israel says they are justified in the name of security.
The Israeli military establishment has been on the defensive after Israeli aircraft launched a series of strikes on Monday in the Gaza Strip.
Palestinian chief negotiator Saeb Erekat appealed to the international community to restrain Israel from carrying out such raids.
