More Fatah/Hamas infighting, more casualties

At least ten people in Gaza dead (and I think there was a local report that at least 3 more followed):
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) - Fatah fighters stormed a Hamas-affiliated university on Friday morning for the second time, setting buildings on fire and threatening to escalate an already raging battle between the two factions in the Gaza Strip.

A new round of heavy fighting throughout Gaza killed 10 people Friday - including a woman and three children - making a total of 17 since Thursday afternoon, as gunmen waged battles in the streets with mortar shells, rockets and heavy machine guns.

Thousands of Gazans huddled in their homes to escape the crossfire from the resurgent violence, which destroyed a brief truce between Fatah and Hamas. Health authorities said they were running out of blood to treat the wounded.

[...]

More than 100 Palestinians have been killed in internal violence since Hamas won parliamentary elections last year and formed a Cabinet. In the wake of the election, Abbas took control of the security forces and Hamas established its own militia. The two forces have fought repeatedly in the streets.
And tomorrow it's likely to get even worse.

About me

  • I'm Avi Green
  • From Jerusalem, Israel
  • I was born in Pennsylvania in 1974, and moved to Israel in 1983. I also enjoyed reading a lot of comics when I was young, the first being Fantastic Four. I maintain a strong belief in the public's right to knowledge and accuracy in facts. I like to think of myself as a conservative-style version of Clark Kent. I don't expect to be perfect at the job, but I do my best.
