Palestinian Militants Free Bomb Suspects
Palestinian militants stormed a Palestinian police station in Gaza City and released three men with possible links to a deadly bombing of a U.S. diplomatic convoy. A fourth man refused to leave with the three, saying he was waiting to be formally released by Palestinian authorities in accordance with a March decision by a Palestinian court. "We succeeded in freeing three of our brothers," Abu Abir, a spokesman for the Popular Resistance Committees militant group, told The Associated Press. "An effort is being made with the Palestinian Authority to release the one who remains behind bars." Although news of the incident only emerged on Friday, Abu Abir said it took place on Tuesday. "This is another sign of the lack of seriousness that the Palestinians have shown in this investigation since the beginning," said an American official.
