| 2009-08-22 |
| Ma'an -- A clan clash in Tubas caused the death of a young man and incineration of five houses Thursday night. Palestinian Authority police arrested five in connection with the death of the 23-year-old Husny Ziad Abed Sawafta. An additional 38 were injured. Sawafta was shot point blank with a 9mm. The police said Sawafta's family set fire to the homes to avenge the death of their son, and the fires lead to street-side brawls. |
