Mass funeral march for top Palestinian official
Palestinians were preparing a mass funeral procession through the West Bank today for Faisal Husseini, the top Palestinian official in Jerusalem, who died earlier of a heart attack during a visit to Kuwait.
Meanwhile violence persisted, despite a unilateral ceasefire declared by the Israelis. Palestinians fired four mortar shells early today at the Jewish settlement of Slav in the Gaza Strip. No one was hurt.
