Gaza Strip - Israeli troops shot dead seven Palestinians in a strawberry field in north Gaza on Tuesday after mortar fire from Palestinian militants there wounded two Jewish settlers.


“We collected the bodies, three of them teenagers, in a strawberry farm and we believe all were farmers. The bodies were blown to pieces by a tank shell,” said Mahmoud al-Assali, hospital director in the Palestinian town of Beit Lahiya.

A Reuters news team found the strawberry grove splattered with blood and bits of flesh. A severed foot lay in the field.

Palestinian medics said six other Palestinians were seriously wounded by the tank burst.
