Hamas leader's children die in rocket attack

An Islamic militant leader’s pick-up truck was hit by what appeared to be an Israeli rocket in the West Bank today, killing two of his children and seriously wounding three people.

Hussein Abu Kweik of the Hamas group, was not in his vehicle at the time. The pick-up was driving in a affluent neighbourhood of Ramallah when it was hit, apparently by a rocket that punched a large hole through the roof.
