Medical sources confirm death of two Palestinians in Jabaliya

GAZA, April 4 (KUNA) -- Palestinian medical sources confirmed Saturday the death of two unidentified Palestinian activists earlier today in clashes with Israeli troops in the northern Gaza town of Jabaliya.
Reports earlier today said two Palestinians had been injured in the confrontations but that ambulances were denied access to rescue them.
Meanwhile, an Israeli army spokesman told Radio Israeli that the two Palestinians had been killed during an attempted breaking into Kfar Aza kibbutz, close to the electric wall in northern Gaza.
He said an explosive device was found to have been in the possession of the two Palestinians, and said that no injuries were suffered on the Israeli side.
According to Palestinian medical sources, the bodies of the two Palestinians were retrieved in coordination with the Red Cross. (pickup previous) mzt.ema KUNA 041251 Apr 09NNNN
