Central Gaza clashes, 2 dead in nearby explosion
2010-04-19
The Palestinian National Resistance Brigades, the military wing of the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (DFLP) claimed a group of fighters clashed with an Israeli force after it crossed into Gaza east of Juhor Ad-Dik Sunday morning.

The military group said fighters used machine guns and Rocket-Propelled Grenades (RPG) to force Israeli troops back out of the Strip, as the soldiers responded with fire, a statement from the group said.

An Israeli military spokeswoman said she was unaware of shots fired in the area.

In their statement, the DFLP's military wing said it would "continue to resist Israeli occupation as long as Israeli settlement construction and racial policies continue."

Earlier, the central Gaza Strip saw an unexplained explosion east of the Al-Bureij refugee camp which killed two men on Saturday night, Palestinian medical sources at the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital said, noting the cause of the explosion has yet to be determined.

The dead were identified as Ayman Abu Khusa and Naji Nabahin from the Al-Bureij camp, hospital spokesman Abu Silmiyya said, adding that their bodies arrived at the hospital in pieces.

Director of ambulance and emergency service in Muawiya Hassanein said the deaths were the result of an ambiguous explosion east of the camp near the Israeli border.
