Hamas fighter dies of wounds from Israeli fire
[Ma'an] A Paleostinian resistance fighter died Thursday from wounds sustained a week earlier during fighting with Israeli forces in the southern Gazoo Strip, officials said.
Officials from Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason,' armed wing, the Al-Qassam Brigades, said Mahdi Abu Athra, 26, died in hospital after being injured by Israeli fire near Rafah, a statement said.
The statement said Abu Athra's death brought to 19 the number of dead following a one-week spike in violence between Israel and Gazoo resistance factions.
