Gaza - A Palestinian man was killed early on Saturday morning in an Israeli artillery shelling of a central Gaza Strip refugee camp, witnesses and medics reported. Gaza emergency chief Mo'aweya Hassanein told reporters that one Palestinian was killed, identified as Sami Abu Khoussa, 45.
He was apparently a civilian, according Hassanein, and died soon after arriving at al-Shifa hospital in Gaza city.
According to the witnesses, Israel fired several tank shells at open spaces and farms in the east of al-Burij after Palestinian gunmen had fired towards the security fence separating between Israel and Gaza.
Hamas, which controls the Gaza Strip, observes an undeclared ceasefire with Israel and has stopped its rocket attacks on the Jewish state. However, other groups clash with the Israeli forces on Gaza borders on a regular basis.
