Hamas and Fatah Clash in Gaza (Reuters)
Hamas gunmen and members of a Fatah-dominated national security force fought a gun battle on Monday in a Gaza refugee camp in the first outbreak of factional fighting in more than a week, local residents said. Hamas and other militant groups have turned their attention instead to rocket attacks against southern Israel, drawing Israeli forces into an air campaign in Gaza that has killed more than 40 Palestinians, mostly fighters.
