Militants vow revenge for Israeli killing
The bloodied body of Mohammed Sidr was pulled from the rubble of a small warehouse after daybreak, after a stand-off of several hours during which he occasionally traded fire with troops. The military said the warehouse doubled as a bomb laboratory.
Israel accuses Sidr of planning several bombing and shooting attacks, and Israeli Defence Minister Shaul Mofaz called him a ticking bomb. In December, Israel tried to kill Sidr in a helicopter strike, but he escaped. Two boys, ages 3 and 13, were killed instead.
