Reuters. 8 October 2002. Israeli forces open fire, kill girl - witnesses.

GAZA -- Israeli tanks patrolling in the southern Gaza Strip opened fire
into a Palestinian refugee camp on Tuesday, killing a girl, Palestinian
witnesses and hospital officials said. 

Israeli military sources said Israeli forces returned fire after gunmen
in Rafah refugee camp attacked with machineguns or grenades, injuring
two Israeli soldiers. 

The 12-year-old Palestinian girl, Maysaa Zanon, who was playing in front
of her house, died of a gunshot wound in the chest after soldiers fired
machineguns from the tanks, the Palestinian witnesses and hospital
officials said. 

Israeli forces regularly patrol a border area between Egypt and Rafah,
which has been a hotspot of violence since the Palestinian uprising
broke out more than two years ago. 

At least 1,599 Palestinians and 602 Israelis have been killed during the
uprising for independence that erupted after peace talks stalled.
