Hamas gunmen opened fire on demonstrators in Gaza today as hundreds gathered to protest about the deaths of three children, killed on their way to school yesterday.

The boys were the sons of one of President Mahmoud Abbas's top officials, and Hamas has been blamed for their deaths, sparking off new inter-factional rivalry within the Palestinian territories.
