Their Misuse of Weapons columnist must be back from vacation. Or prison...
On Tuesday evening, 8 April 2008, 2 Palestinians were wounded during armed clashes between Palestinian security forces and militants from the al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades (the armed wing of Fatah movement) in Nablus. The clashes erupted when security forces attempted to re-arrest 12 militants of the Fares al-Lail (Night Knights) Group of the al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, who had fled from Junaid Prison in the west of Nablus.
Guards! Let us outta here!
Oh. Okay. Can I call yas a cab?
According to investigations conducted by PCHR, at approximately 19:00 on Tuesday, 8 April 2008, Palestinian security forces surrounded a number of houses in Housh al-Jeitan area in the old town of Nablus. They were searching for 12 militants who had escaped from Junaid Prison. A number of militants from Fares al-Lail Group of the al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades exchanged fire with security forces. As a result of the exchange of fire, a civilian bystander and a militant were wounded: Mohammed Qassem al-Kharraz, 19, wounded by a gunshot to the left foot; and Sufian Qandil, 24, wounded by shrapnel to the feet.
The return of that legendary Pali marksmanship.
The militants whom security forces were attempting to arrest escaped from Junaid Prison on Friday evening, 4 April 2008, after a fight with guards.
Well, screw you, we're leaving!
Hey! Wait a minute! You can't do that!
Watch us...
They are wanted by IOF and had handed over their weapons to the Palestinian National Authority. They committed to calming down the situation concerning the confrontation with Israeli Occupation Forces. They also pledged to serve 3-6 months in Palestinian prison in order for an amnesty for them to be issued by Israel.
3 to 6 months? Is that OK with you boys?
Sure, ya honor. Sounds okay.
And you'll work to calm things down?
Sure, ya honor. Whatevah ya say...
On Sunday evening, 6 April 2008, Abdullah Mohammed Bahar, 4, was killed and his brother, Abdul Jawad, 8, was wounded when a mortar shell fell near their house in al-Boreij refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip.
I believe these were the two killed by "an Israeli tank shell" the other day.
According to investigations conducted by PCHR, at approximately 15:00 on Sunday, a mortar shell fell near a house belonging to Mohammed Suleiman Bahar, 51, in the east of al-Boreij refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip. As a result, two of the owners children were wounded when they were playing near the house: Abullah, 4, wounded by shrapnel to the head and the chest; and Abdul Jawad, 8, wounded by shrapnel to the head. The two children were evacuated to al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir al-Balah town, but Abdullah died shortly after arriving at the hospital.
Make them honorary shaheeds, toss pops a coupla hundred bucks, and the Brave Jihadi Freedom Fighters are off the hook.
PCHR is gravely concerned for the increasing number of casualties resulting from the misuse of weapons. PCHR calls upon concerned authorities to take necessary measures to ensure the non-recurrence of such incidents, which cause civilian fatalities, and to ensure protection for civilian and their property.
Maybe the Israelis could teach them how to shoot?
PCHRs preliminary investigation and eyewitness accounts indicate that at approximately 18:30 on Friday, 4 April, the teenager Mahmoud Ahmad El-Shobaki (19) was killed by a bullet to the head. The bullet was fired when the victim mishandled an assault rifle. The victim was with one of his friends on the roof of his house in Daraj Quarter in Gaza City. Sources at Shifa Hospital stated that the victim was pronounced dead upon arrival at the hospital.
Proper gun safety says we'd better make sure it's unloaded, Mahmood.
Good idea. I'll look down the barrel and you pull the trigger.
In another incident at approximately 15:30 on Saturday, 5 April, a Policeman for the dismissed government in Gaza called Hamdi Hamed El-Sakani (24) was injured by a bullet to the right thigh and shrapnel to the right shoulder. He was injured in an armed clash with members of Doghmush clan in Tal El-Hawa Quarter in Gaza City.
The Dogmushes are back! On Gaza A&E!
The injured policeman informed PCHRs fieldworker that he went with three other policemen on a mission to arrest a suspected criminal from Doghmush clan. When they saw the suspect, they disembarked from their vehicle to make the arrest; however, members of the clan fired at the policemen, who returned fire. He was injured as a result. El-Sakani stated that the suspect was arrested later during the day.
Ah, one a them Dogmushes are ya! Slap the bracelets on him, Al- Muldoon!
PCHR is concerned over the continued falling of victims due to the misuse of weapons; and calls upon concerned parties to enforce mechanisms to ensure that these incidents do not recur.
Really. C'mon. We're serious...
