| An armed Palestinian was shot dead by Israeli troops Thursday as he was attempting to infiltrate an illegal Jewish settlement in the Gaza Strip, Palestinian security sources said, Agence France-Presse (AFP) reported. Assam Al-Sussi, 21, a member of the Ezzedine Al-Qassam Brigades - the military wing of the Islamic resistance movement Hamas - was shot dead as he was allegedly preparing to attack the settlement of Netzarim in the northern Gaza Strip, the sources said. An army spokesman said two Palestinians were killed. Sussi's death - raising the toll to six for Thursday - brought to 2,792 the number of people killed since the start of the Palestinian intifada or uprising 27 months ago, including 2,062 Palestinians and 681 Israelis. "Damn those Zionists! They didn't even let him kill anybody! It's just not fair!" |
