'Israeli forces kill Palestinian women at Gaza mosque.

Israeli occupation forces shot dead two Palestinian women on Friday during a stand-off at a mosque in the town of Beit Hanoun in northern Gaza, the BBC reported.
The killings took place on the third day of a deadly Israeli offensive in Beit Hanoun, the largest military operation carried out in Gaza since the capture of an Israeli soldier by Palestinian fighters last summer.
Residents say a tense stand-off developed in Beit Hanoun late Thursday after Israeli troops surrounded the al-Nasir mosque, where Palestinian fighters had taken refuge along with about 60 other people.
An Israeli military spokesman claimed that the killed women were among 100 others who marched to the mosque en masse to act as human shields to help the fighters escape.
Reports say six other women were wounded by Israeli fire.
Witnesses said Israeli forces demolished a wall of the mosque and fired stun grenades and tear gas as they tried to force those inside to surrender.
Shortly after the Palestinians escaped, the mosque, one of the oldest in Gaza, collapsed, the Israeli army said, claiming that the building collapsed due to gunfire during the 12-hour siege.'

At least one Palestinian woman was killed and another 10 were reported wounded when Israeli forces today opened fire on a group preparing to act as a human shield for militants in a Gaza mosque.
Dozens of women were gathering outside the mosque in Beit Hanoun in the northern Gaza Strip this morning after an appeal on a local radio station. Up to 60 gunmen had taken refuge in the building after the Israeli army began its largest Gaza offensive in months in an attempt to stop militants launching rocket attacks on nearby Jewish settlements over the border.
Television pictures showed at least 50 women making their way along a pavement when shots could be heard ringing out. They started to flee in terror and at least two women were left lying on the ground.
Witnesses said one woman, aged about 40, was killed, and 10 others were wounded. Some reports said a second woman had died. The Israeli army said troops spotted two militants hiding in the crowd of women and opened fire.'
