GAZA, May 14 (Reuters) - Israeli air strikes against Palestinian militants in the southern Gaza Strip killed a Hamas gunman, Palestinian medics said on Wednesday.

An Israeli army spokeswoman said troops clashed with gunmen during an incursion in the Khan Younis area and called in two air strikes against the gunmen.

Israeli troops entered the village of Khouzza in the Hamas-controlled territory and clashed with militants from Hamas and Islamic Jihad, Hamas and the army said. (Reporting by Nidal al-Mughrabi; Writing by Joseph Nasr; Editing by Tim Pearce)
