"Tensions are running high in the Gaza Strip, after an Israeli air strike hit a car carrying five members of the Islamic Jihad's military wing, the al-Quds brigades.

Two Islamic Jihad members were killed and three others were injured.

The strike comes just a day after the Islamic Jihad Movement along with other Palestinian factions said they were committed to calming tensions with Israel. However, the group says Palestinians always reserve the right to respond if one of its members is killed.

The Israeli military claim it targeted a group of Palestinians who had attempted to fire rockets.

This latest attack by Israel followed one of the bloodiest weeks since the Israeli war on Gaza.

Rights groups say there is a plot in the West of keeping silent towards what is happening in Gaza.

Many here believe Israel has dealt a heavy blow to the de facto truce by its latest attack.

Analysts say the surge in cross-border attacks over the last week has prompted fears of a would-be war on Gaza which is still recovering from a devastating 22-day war back in late 2008.
