Six Palestinians Die in Factional Violence in Gaza

HeadlineNov 13, 2007

In Gaza, at least six Palestinians died and 100 more were wounded on Monday during a rally to commemorate the third anniversary of Yasser Arafat’s death. Hundreds of thousands of supporters from Arafat’s Fatah faction rallied in Gaza City in the largest Fatah gathering in the city since Hamas seized full control of the Gaza Strip in June. Doctors at hospitals in Gaza said all of the dead and most of the wounded were Fatah supporters. Hamas and Fatah accused each other of starting the violence. Meanwhile, Israeli forces have detained another Hamas member of the Palestinian parliament, Mariam Saleh. About half of the 74 Hamas legislators are currently in Israeli jails. Saleh is the former Palestinian minister of women’s affairs.
