An Arab man was shot to death in the occupied Gaza Strip as the Palestinian uprising in the Israeli-occupied territories entered its eighth month. Officials at Shifa Hospital in Gaza City said 25-year-old Faek Suleiman Hussein was killed when Israeli troops clashed with about 150 stone-throwing protesters during a demonstration at the Jabaliya refugee camp after a prayer session in a local mosque. An army spokesman confirmed the death but had no details. The killing pushed the Palestinian death toll to well over 200 in the uprising, which started last Dec. 9.
