One of the four was identified as Nader Abu Leil, a wanted fugitive sought after by the Shin Bet and security forces for some time due to his involvment in planning and launching suicide bomb and shooting attacks against Israeli citizens. Hashem Abu Hamdan was the second Palestinian killed in the attack. The IDF Spokesman refused to comment on the incident. "I can say no more" The two others killed in the explosion were also Al Aksa members. Witnesses said an F-16 fighter jet was seen in the area at the time of the explosion. Hamas radio station hit IAF attack helicopters fired three missiles at a 15-storey building housing a Hamas radio station, "Al Aksa", in Gaza City just after 7 p.m. on Sunday.
