Israeli soldiers Sunday killed an armed Palestinian who was crawling towards the border between the Gaza Strip and Israel proper. A military spokeswoman said the soldiers spotted three Palestinians nearing the security barrier Israel has built around the Gaza Strip, near the Karni Crossing. One of the Palestinians was crawling, the spokeswoman said. Soldiers shot and killed the man who crawled and, in a subsequent search, established he had carried an explosive belt, a Kalachnikov gun, four magazines and two hand grenades. The two others fled, the army reported.
