Hamas's Yassin Survives Gaza Strike
(Ha'aretz) Amos Harel and Arnon Regular - Hamas's spiritual leader Sheikh Ahmed Yassin was lightly injured in the hand Saturday when an IAF F-16 dropped a 250-kilogram bomb on a building in Gaza City in which the Hamas leadership was reportedly meeting. It appears that intelligence placed the Hamas meeting on the third floor of the building, while the organization's leadership was actually meeting in a first-floor apartment. Israeli security sources explained that a lighter bomb was used to ensure that the entire building would not collapse and that minimal collateral harm would be caused.
