Around 40 masked gunmen claiming to be members of al-Qaida stormed an empty beach resort and blew up a reception hall on Tuesday. They said they were sending a message to Gaza strongman Mohammed Dahlan, a close ally of President Abbas. An explosion ripped through the office of Arabiya satellite station in Gaza Strip last night.
