Israeli army wounds 2 Palestinians in Gaza

The Israeli forces Saturday shot and wounded two Palestinian workers in northern Gaza Strip, medical sources and witnesses said.
The two were moderately wounded after the Israeli forces opened fire at workers near the security fence separating Gaza and Israel, said Adham Abu Selmia, spokesman for government's medical services.
Witnesses said the two workers were with a group of people collecting gravel from former Jewish settlements that Israel evacuated in 2005.
As Israel withholds shipments of gravel and other construction materials to Gaza, people go to dig for gravel beneath roads that used to link the Jewish settlements in northern Gaza, near the border. The Israeli army frequently fires at the workers who are mostly children.
