| Israeli Missiles Kill Islamic Militant |
| 2003-04-10 |
| E.F.L. Israeli helicopters launched four missiles at a car carrying Islamic militants in Gaza City on Thursday, killing a top commander and wounding 12 bystanders, Palestinian witnesses and doctors said. The leader of the Islamic Jihad's military wing, Mahmoud Zatme, 30, died in the attack, a group official said. It was the second Israeli killing from the air this week in Gaza. Thursday's strike followed one on Tuesday — an Israeli F-16 warplane rocketed a car in Gaza, killing Saed Arabeed, 38, a senior Hamas commander, and six other people, including four civilians. Eventually, no one will want to be a senior leader. |
