GAZA CITY (CNN) -- An Israeli airstrike pounded a Hamas base in southern Gaza on Tuesday, killing at least six Hamas militants and injuring 10 -- three critically, Hamas security sources said.
The airstrike hit a base east of Khan Yunis, the sources said.
Israel Defense Forces confirmed they carried out an airstrike in southern Gaza, but offered no details.
The move comes a day after a suicide bomber from Gaza struck an Israeli shopping mall, killing one person and wounding several.

Monday's attack in Dimona was the first suicide bombing in Israel in over a year.
A short time after Tuesday's airstrike, Palestinian militants in Gaza fired several Qassam rockets into Israel, one of them striking a house in Sderot and injuring two people, Israeli emergency medical sources said. Neither person was seriously injured.
Out of four rockets fired, three landed in Sderot -- a frequent target of the short-range, homemade missiles. E-mail to a friend
