Palestinians take over prison in Hebron, spring gunnies |
2002-02-11 |
Some 300 Palestinian took over a prison in Hebron in the West Bank and started releasing Islamist prisoners. It was not immediately clear if the rioters were armed. The takeover came after hundreds of Palestinians tried to free prisoners in Gaza City's prison, located in the same compound as central security offices which had been bombed by the Israeli air force.
