Palestinians Fired at Israel from Next to Hospital
(Independent-UK) Kim Sengupta - At the Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, officials and the media gathered for a visit of foreign ministers from Arab League countries and Turkey. At 2:08 p.m. on Tuesday, a long-range rocket of the type Israel has accused Iran of supplying to Hamas was fired from within 500 yards of the hospital. It hit southeast of Jerusalem. Hamas officials at the hospital were asked how firing rockets from such a built-up area could be justified as it is likely to provoke Israeli action. One said it was probably the work of the Islamic Jihad militia.
