Bomb blast at Gaza police chief's house

A large remote-control bomb went off early today in a house in Gaza City shortly after the Gaza security chief left, witnesses said. No one was hurt, but there was considerable damage.

The wife of Gaza security chief Ghazi Jabali lives in the house in the Rimal neighbourhood of Gaza City where the bomb went off. Witnesses found a 25 yard wire leading from the scene of the blast, attached to a switch.
