Israel-Palestine-Jordan
Two Paleo Gaza Policemen killed by Qassam fired from Gaza
2006-05-02
Two Palestinian policemen were killed in a rocket strike Tuesday on a building at the Palestinian national security compound in the northern Gaza Strip.
Palestinian sources said that the rocket hit the base of the Third Brigade of the Palestinian national security forces, east of the Jabaliya refugee camp.

The rocket was apparently a locally made Qassam rocket, used by Palestinians [presumably Islamic Jihad] to fire on [in this cast at] southern Israel. The blast caused the one-story building to collapse.
