Israeli Navy Kills 4 More

Four Palestinian divers were shot dead and two more missing off Gaza after the Israeli navy opened fire on their rickety boat. The Israeli military alleged its forces prevented an attack on Israeli targets, but did not offer evidence or further explanation. The incident comes a week after nine pro-Palestinian activists were killed in a clash with commandos as their supply vessel tried to reach Gaza.

Again headshots... At a distance, a sniper's tactic. Up close, murder.

The BBC’s Jon Donnison in Ramallah explains a militant group, among several rivals to Gaza-ruling Hamas, claims involvement, but Israelis' firing on fishing boats is a frequent occurrence.
