Egyptian man dies while smuggling gasoline into Gaza
2009-02-21
An Egyptian security official says a man allegedly smuggling gasoline into Gaza burned to death in a tunnel.
Another payout from Mutual of Gaza™?
The official says police saw flames and smoke coming from what later turned out to be a tunnel entrance. They pulled two men from the tunnel.

A medical representative in North Sinai, Imad Kharboush, said one man died from his injuries. He said the other man, who was badly burned, escaped from the hospital.

The tunnels are used to smuggle food, supplies and weapons into the blockaded strip.
But especially weapons ...

#5  Yup, .5MY. It wasn't fun. After the first time I asked to be havily medicated and they obliged. If this guy really was badly burned chances are he won't survive. Bacteria love burned skin.

#3   Really made an ash of himself didn't he. The guy must be tough! I was badly burned once and had no desire whatsoever to escape from the hospital.
