GAZA, Feb 6 (Reuters) - An Israeli missile struck a metal foundry in the central Gaza Strip on Wednesday, wounding at least two Palestinians, Hamas officials said.

Medical officials said the two civilians hurt in the attack were outside the foundry when the missile exploded. The foundry was not occupied at the time, the Hamas official said.

An Israeli spokesman said he was checking the report.
