Israeli soldiers on Monday shot dead a Palestinian man and injured another man in the Gaza Strip. The two Palestinians were approaching the so-called "security fence" near Kibbutz Nahal Oz, together with three other men, Israel Radio reported. On Sunday, an 11-year-old boy, Mohammed Hameida, was killed in Dir al-Balah when Israeli troops opened fire on a group of houses, according to Palestinian sources. Another Palestinian, Rami Alian, 22, was killed in a gun battle with Israeli troops between Kissufim and Gush Katif. Three other Palestinians died Sunday from wounds sustained in earlier Israeli raids. Elsewhere, Israeli forces continued to make arrests. In Qalqilia, troops detained 12 Palestinians during a wide search campaign, WAFA reported. In the town of Qabatia, south of the city of Jenin, Israeli forces arrested four Palestinians during a house-to-house search campaign, Palestinian sources reported. **PHOTO CAPTION*** The father of killed Palestinian Karim Al Kafarna weeps over his body as family members stand in the morgue at Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, Monday, Oct. 27, 2003.
