Rafah: Gazan escapes clashes to Egypt, child hit by bullet
2009-08-16
Ma'an -- An Egyptian child was hit by a stray bullet and a Palestinian man fled from the clashes between Hamas and the ultra-Islamist group Jund Ansar Allah (Warrior of God) in the border city of Rafah on Friday.

There was no word on how the Palestinian escaped the Strip, but sources said he handed himself over to Egyptian police.
Yes, but had he intended to do so, or was he presented with an exciting opportunity?
Egyptian sources said ten artillery shells also landed on the southern side of the Gaza-Egypt border, five of which exploded though no casualties were reported from the shells.

Egyptian forces dismantled the remaining shells, and had troops pull back from the border area as the Gaza Strip clashes went on into the night.
"Let 'em kill one another until they're done, sergeant. Allah will sort it out."
"Yessir, captain!"
