Israel-Palestine-Jordan
PRC: Fighters used massive bomb against invading forces; armed factions coordinating response
2009-01-04
Ma'an -- Palestinian fighters detonated a 50 kilogram bomb as Israeli forces crossed into the Gaza Strip, a spokesperson of one of the key armed Palestinian armed groups said on Saturday evening.
'Massive': I don't think that means what you think it means.
Abu Mujahid, the spokesman of the An-Nasser Salah Ad-Din Brigades, the armed wing of the Popular Resistance Committees, told Al-Jazeera television that their forces had set off the massive explosion in an area called Hayeh Zaytoun. It was not clear if anyone was injured.

He also said that his group is coordinating the defense of the Gaza Strip with all other armed factions, including the Al-Aqsa Brigades, an armed group loyal to Fatah, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, Hamas, and others. He said the fighters' confidence is "soaring," and that the armed factions are weighing "all options" in their defense of Gaza.
