Field Update
30 March 2006The central and southern areas of the Gaza Strip have seen more incidents involving misuse of weapons by armed groups and security personnel, which constitute a continuation of the general security chaos in the Occupied Palestinian Territory (OPT). Yesterday evening, 2 citizens were injured by gunfire from members of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, against the backdrop of a dispute over a plot of government owned land in Khan Yunis.
Furthermore, 2 children were injured while they were handling a locally manufactured explosive device. And in the early hours of this morning, an explosion targeted the vehicle of an officer from the Preventive Security Forces, in El-Bureij refugee camp. Following the explosion, gunmen from the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades closed Salah El-Deen Road, opposite El-Bureij refugee camp.
If this were a rare event, it would be a tragedy; but as common as it is, it’s pathetic:
At approximately 21:00 on Wednesday, Mohammad Husam Abu Tir, 15, and Hisham Ismail El-Habbash, 16, sustained shrapnel injuries all over their bodies, while they were handling a locally produced explosive device in Abu Tir’s house, located in Nuseirat refugee camp. They were taken to Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital for treatment, where their injuries were classified as moderate.
Isn’t this a metaphor of Palestinian society today?
