Border Policeman Shot on Gaza Border Dies of Wounds
(Jerusalem Post-Times of Israel) Michael Starr - St.-Sgt. Barel Hadaria Shmueli, 21, died on Monday after being shot in the head at close range by a Palestinian gunman during the Gaza border riots on August 21. The IDF has accused Hamas of organizing the riots. An IDF investigation found that after a sudden rush of rioters toward the security fence, the soldiers stationed on the border did not immediately open fire out of concern that they might hit civilians, a military official said.
