Palestinian security sources and hospital officials said one Palestinian was killed and 14 were injured in the gunfight in the Jabaliyah refugee camp. Five police were shot and wounded. Earlier clashes broke out when police tried to arrest a senior Hamas military leader and supporters elsewhere in Gaza. |
