Men arrested after Gaza assassination attempt
Palestinian police have arrested three Palestinians following a failed assassination attempt on the head of military intelligence in the Gaza Strip. Attackers used a rocket-propelled grenade to try to kill Colonel Moussa Arafat.Bad move, failing to kill him, I mean. The rocket missed the military intelligence headquarters in Gaza and ploughed into the adjoining jail, wounding at least 10 prisoners. Among the injured were suspected collaborators with Israel, and Palestinians charged with violating the cease-fire. Palestinian officials say the attack was clearly an assassination attempt on Colonel Moussa Arafat, who is the chief of military intelligence in Gaza. Three Palestinians have been arrested by police and are being questioned about the strike. Iâm sure the Colonel is taking a "special" interest in the questioning. Posted by: Steve 2003-07-25 |
