Fresh killings shatter Gaza truce
Gunmen have killed at least 13 people in the latest factional violence in the Gaza Strip, ending a third attempt at a ceasefire in as many days.
A dawn raid on the home of a top Fatah official left five people dead, only hours after the truce was agreed by the feuding Hamas and Fatah factions.
Later Hamas gunmen ambushed a jeep and mistakenly killed five fighters from their own side detained by Fatah men.
Some 40 people have died since fierce fighting broke out in Gaza on Sunday.
Two members of the pro-Fatah Preventive Security force and a bystander were also killed in the ambush, in the centre of Gaza City.

Nour Odeh, Al Jazeera's correspondent in Gaza, said 14 people had been killed on Wednesday - the fourth day of internecine violence between Hamas and Fatah.
The violence has led to speculation that Mahmoud Abbas, the president, may declare a state of emergency.
Escalating violence
Hamas fighters stormed a Fatah official's home in Gaza City early in the morning, killing five guards.
