Bomb Destroys U.S. Diplomatic Vehicle Three Killed

Gaza Strip - An explosion has destroyed a U.S. diplomatic vehicle killing three Americans and wounding one. The attack follows U.S. President Bush stating Israel’s latest bloodied invasion of refugee camps in the Palestinian Territories a justifiable defence.

The explosion is believed to have been from a road-side bomb.

The Palestinian National Authority has condemned the attack that struck a U.S. diplomatic convoy in Beit Hanoon, north Gaza Strip. A massive explosion ripped through a U.S. diplomatic vehicle Wednesday, killing at least three Americans, Palestinian officials said.

The Israeli occupation forces had earlier imposed a strict curfew on Tulkarem city and its camp in the West Bank.
