Palestinian officials say an Israeli airstrike in the Gaza Strip killed three people Wednesday.

They say one of the dead is a young girl.  Officials say the strike hit a Palestinian militant training camp.  At least three others were wounded.

Hours earlier, Palestinian security officials say an Israeli helicopter strike killed two members of the radical Palestinian group, Islamic Jihad.  Officials say Israeli helicopters fired missiles on at least one house in the northern West Bank refugee camp of Jenin.

Islamic Jihad has been responsible for suicide bombings and other attacks in Israel in recent years.  

Some information for this report was provided by AFP, AP and Reuters.
