GHAZA - Three Palestinian brothers were killed Friday in a collapsed tunnel dug under the border between Ghaza and Egypt, according to a medical source.

  •     The underground collapsed at the height of the border town of Rafah, said the same source.

        Besides the three brothers died, a fourth Palestinian was seriously wounded, medical sources said.

        Fatal accidents are frequent in these tunnels used in smuggling weapons, fuel and goods from Egypt into the Ghaza Strip, subject to an Israeli blockade since the seizure of power in the territory by the Palestinian Islamist movement Hamas in June 2007.
