Israeli forces withdrew early this morning from a northern Gaza Strip refugee camp, three days after launching an incursion to prevent the launching of rockets at Israeli towns, an Israeli military source said.
Soldiers also reopened several key roads in Gaza as they pulled out of Jabalya refugee camp before dawn, Palestinian security sources said.
But troops remained in other northern parts of the coastal Gaza area, the Israeli source said.
Eight Palestinians were killed in Jabalya during the Israeli incursion, five of them civilians.
