Car Bomb Targets Israeli Convoy in Gaza
A car bomb exploded near an Israeli convoy on the Gaza-Egypt border Friday, killing the bomber and lightly wounding two soldiers, the army said. According to the army, a car pulled up near a bus full of Israeli workers from the Rafah border crossing, and a militant got out of the car firing on the bus. As the gunman shot at the bus, the car exploded and killed the attacker, the army said. An army jeep accompanying the bus collided with the bus as a result of the explosion, slightly wounding two soldiers, the army said. No one was wounded by the shooting or the explosion, it said. Palestinian witnesses said they saw a white jeep driving toward the convoy shortly before the explosion. Later five ambulances rushed to the scene, they said.Posted by: Fred 2004-05-28 |
