PALESTINIAN WOMEN CRY DURING FUNERAL OF HASAN ABU KHARTA IN RAFAH
REFUGEE CAMP.
Palestinian women cry during the funeral of Hasan Abu Kharta, 55, at
his house in the Rafah refugee camp in the southern part of Gaza strip
on November 16, 2003. Israeli forces killed one Palestinian in a raid
on Sunday and captured a suspected weapons runner in charge of a
network of arms-smuggling tunnels on the Gaza Strip's border with
Egypt, the army said. Last month, Israeli forces killed eight people
and left 1,000 homeless during a three-day operation to demolish
tunnels in Rafah which the army says has become a major channel for
weapons for a three-year-old Palestinian uprising. REUTERS/Oleg Popov
