'Human Shield Deters Israel Strike
The Israelis have called off a planned air attack on a house in Jabaliya refugee camp in Gaza after hundreds of Palestinians formed a human shield.
Mohammedweil Baroud said he was warned by Israeli forces to leave his home. He instead ran to a mosque and summoned neighbours to help defend the house.
Mr. Baroud is a commander in the Popular Resistance Committees militant group.
The Israeli army often orders people out of homes ahead of attacks, saying it aims to avoid casualties.
A Hamas commander at the scene said people had gathered to show that the demolition strategy of the Israelis could be defeated.
Meanwhile one person was wounded in a rocket attack on the Israeli town of Sderot.
Hamas said in a statement it had carried out the attack, the Associated Press news agency reported.
Israel often targets the homes of Gaza militants in response to such attacks.
One woman was killed and several injured in an attack on Sderot last week.
Chanting Slogans
The BBC's Alan Johnston in Gaza says it appears that an unprecedented act of defiance by the Palestinians to a particular Israeli tactic has worked.
The Israeli air force often uses night-time helicopter missile strikes to target homes in Gaza which the Israelis say have been used to store weapons or plan attacks on Israel.
Very often the air force telephones a warning 10 minutes before the strike to give the occupants time to escape and keep down casualties, our correspondent says.
But on this occasion, the presence of so many people has made it impossible for the Israelis to carry though their planned air strike.
Hundreds of relatives and neighbours gathered at the house, where about 50 people reportedly climbed onto the roof. Others stood in the street chanting anti-Israeli and anti-American slogans.
Repeat Urged
The Israeli military may have to factor in more such Palestinian protests in future when it targets the homes of suspected militants from the air, our correspondent adds.
An Israeli military spokesman confirmed to Reuters news agency that the raid had been called off because of the Palestinian action.'
