Terrorist Killed in Gaza "Work Accident"
(Jerusalem Post)

The explosion that ripped through a car in Rafah in the Gaza Strip on
Sunday, killing a Palestinian terrorist, was an apparent "work accident,"
according to Israeli army sources. Yusuf Matar, 25, a member of the violent
Islamic Jihad, was also a member of the Palestinian preventive security
forces.
