It was the second such killing since Tuesday amid growing internal violence in the Gaza Strip fuelled by a power struggle between Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh of Hamas.
Medics said that gunmen shot the Hamas man on Wednesday as they passed him in a car in Jabalya refugee camp, and that he died later in hospital. Hamas sources confirmed the death. In a similar incident on Tuesday, unidentified Palestinian gunmen shot dead a senior member of HamasÂ’s military wing, as he drove his car in Gaza city, medics and a security source said. There were no claims of responsibility for either shooting. |
