Israeli Army Destroys Palestinian Position in Gaza Strip

The Israeli army on Wednesday destroyed a position of the Palestinian security force in the southern Gaza Strip.

The position in Rafah on border with Egypt was smashed after the Israeli army exchanged fires with the Palestinian security force, during which one Palestinian security man and an Israeli soldier were wounded.

Before the fire exchanges, Jewish settlers nearby held protest at the deterioration of the situation and fired at the Palestinian security force, leaving a Palestinian injured.

The Palestinian force counterattacked the settlers, a move which sparked the Israeli army's actions.

Meanwhile, an Israeli special unit captured several members of the Palestinian mainstream Fatah movement.
