Israeli Army Kills Hamas Member in Gaza Strip
---------------------------------------------

The Israeli army said it accidentally killed 28-year-old Hamas member
Mahmoud al-Adham in the Gaza Strip Thursday. Al-Adham was attempting to
turn away two young Palestinians near the Gaza Strip's separation
barrier with Israel when the soldiers shot at him. The killing came amid
a fragile truce that was mediated by Egypt, Qatar and the U.N.,
following a spike in violence in May that killed at least 25
Palestinians.
