A day of violence in Gaza, despite Mecca deal

Members of the Popular Resistance Committees, a group affiliated with Hamas, fired at a senior police official's car Monday, Ynetnews reported.

The police official, Muhammad Youssef escaped the attack unharmed, and police chased after the gunmen.

The Resistance Committees justified their actions, saying that Youssef had broken an agreement to integrate group members into the police force.

In a separate episode in Gaza, security officials reported that Hamas gunmen and security forces fought. The battle erupted over a disagreement between Hamas and Fatah members over who had control of a training compound in Gaza City.

The security forces, which are Fatah-allied, ordered Hamas to leave the area, but Hamas ignored the demand, saying the compound was under the authority of the Hamas-controlled Interior Ministry.
