Explosions Target Fatah Leaders; Israeli Settler Tries to Run over Palestinian

HeadlineNov 07, 2014

In Gaza, a wave of explosions has targeted homes and cars belonging to members of the Fatah Party of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas. No casualties have been reported. The targets included a stage set for use in next week’s commemoration of former Palestinian president and Fatah leader Yasser Arafat. The memorial has sparked tensions between Fatah and rival Palestinian group Hamas. The bombings also come amidst rising tensions between Palestinians and Israelis. Earlier today, news agencies reported an Israeli settler had crashed into a wall after trying to run over a Palestinian in the occupied West Bank. That follows two alleged hit-and-runs by Palestinians on Wednesday. In one, the suspect was shot dead by police after killing a pedestrian; in the second, the man turned himself in after injuring three Israeli soldiers, saying the collision was an accident.
