PALI GUNMEN KILL TOP PAL SECURITY OFFICER

Palestinian Gunmen Kill Top Palestinian Security Officer (NYSun)
"Palestinian gunmen opened fire on a car in Gaza City carrying a top Palestinian security officer in a drive-by shooting that killed the officer and four of his bodyguards, senior Palestinian security officials said," the AP reports.

The attack occurred near the Beach Refugee Camp in the middle of the afternoon. The gunmen, driving a sport utility vehicle, targeted a gray Audi belonging to Brig. Gen. Jad Tayeh, the head of international coordination in the Palestinian intelligence service, spraying dozens of bullets into the car, said Interior Ministry spokesman Khaled Abu Hilal. Tayeh was killed along with four bodyguards...

Gaza has been wracked for much of the year by internal violence between militants from Hamas, which won Palestinian parliamentary elections in January, and those affiliated with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah Party, which controls the security services.

Wait for Kofi Annan to somehow blame Israel for this.
