Palestinian groups end Gaza infighting
 Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas's Fatah party and the Hamas have ordered their gunmen off the streets in Gaza to end inflighting that left 13 people wounded. At a press conference late on Tuesday evening, Nizar Rayyan, a Hamas spokesman and Sufyan Abu Zaidai, Palestinian minister for Prisoners, announced that all gunmen had been ordered to return to their homes, after the two sides reached an agreement to stop the fighting. "Nothing is better than our unity against our enemy (Israel)," said senior Hamas leader Nizar Rayyan.Earlier on Tuesday, clashes erupted between Fatah and Hamas in the Gaza Strip, especially in northern Gaza, which left at least 13 people wounded. It was the worst Palestinian infighting in several years.
