An Israeli warplane has struck the northern Gaza Strip, wounding six people, one very seriously, the territory's Hamas rulers said.
The raid came as thousands took to the streets of Gaza City on Wednesday to celebrate the announcement by Hamas and the PLO of an agreement to form a unity government to end seven years of divided administration.
The Israeli military had no immediate comment.
The rival Palestinian movements had agreed shortly before the strike to form a unity government of independents within five weeks under the leadership of the West Bank-based Palestinian president.
"An agreement has been reached on the formation within five weeks of an independent government headed by president Mahmud Abbas," said a joint statement read out by Hamas's Gaza prime minister Ismail Haniya standing alongside a visiting delegation from the Palestine Liberation Organisation.
