Palestinians Attack Memorial Service for Murdered Mother and Daughters
(UPI/Washington Times-Jerusalem Post) - Palestinians disguised as women opened fire with automatic weapons Sunday at some 300 Israelis who had congregated at the site where Tali Hatuel and her four daughters were murdered a week ago near the Kissufim crossing in the Gaza Strip. Families with babies hit the sand dunes the moment they heard the sound of gunfire that came from the nearby Palestinian town of Khan Yunis. Some people grabbed babies and ran to an armor plated ambulance while soldiers and armed civilians shot back. Two tanks fired at the terrorists. Later an armored bus arrived and evacuated people. No Israelis were hurt. Brig. Gen. Shmuel Zakai said soldiers killed the attackers.
