The Palestinian interior minister stepped down Monday, accusing leaders of thwarting his efforts to halt a new wave of violence that is threatening the survival of the new Palestinian coalition government. The departure of Kawasmeh was a major setback for the government, which was formed in March by rival Fatah and Hamas parties to end months of factional violence. (AP Photo/Adel Hana)
AP - Hamas gunmen attacked rival Fatah forces at a key crossing along the Israeli border, killing seven people and drawing fire from nearby Israeli troops, according to Israeli and Palestinian officials. The incident threatened to drag Israel into the current round of Palestinian factional fighting.
