Hamas-run security forces stormed across Gaza yesterday, clashing with rival Palestinian gunmen and arresting dozens of people after a bomb killed five of its fighters and a little girl.
The explosion late Friday near a beach outside Gaza City was the deadliest incident in weeks in the impoverished Palestinian territory which has been ruled by the Hamas movement for more than a year.
The cause of the explosion was not known but Hamas blamed Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas’ Fatah movement, accusing it of collaborating with Israel to undermine the movement.
“The Fatah movement is behind this reprehensible crime,” senior Hamas leader Khalil Al-Haya told a crowd of thousands of supporters and other senior leaders at a funeral for those killed.
"Those who carried out this crime are making war on God, on the security of Gaza and on the resistance,” he said. “They will not be released after six months but will be hanged from the gallows and shot."
Thousands of supporters marched through the streets on their way to the funeral, carrying the bodies on stretchers draped with green Hamas flags, firing guns into the air and vowing revenge. “It is up to Fatah to determine their position straightaway, whether they are with these criminals, or with the ranks of the Palestinian street in confronting the enemy (Israel),” senior Hamas leader Mahmoud Al-Zahar said.
He told reporters at the cemetery that police had information on who was behind the attack.
In the hours after the explosion Hamas-run security forces arrested dozens of people across the territory and exchanged gunfire and rocket-propelled grenades with a clan in Gaza’s Tel Al-Hawa district. At least 160 people have been arrested since the blast, most of them Fatah supporters, according to the independent Palestinian Center for Human Rights.
Fatah denied any involvement in the “mysterious explosion” and accused elements within the Hamas’ armed wing of planting the explosives as part of an internal conflict.
