Medical officials in Gaza said Saturday night that seven terrorists had been wounded in a clash with IDF soldiers earlier in the day.  Three of the terrorists were in critical condition, doctors said.

The terrorists were injured as they attempted to prevent soldiers from arresting Hamas terrorist Talat Hassan Marouf in his house in the town of Beit Lahiya in northern Gaza.  Marouf’s family was in the house during the shootout, and his 14-year-old daughter was caught in the crossfire and killed.  Two other family members were wounded.  Soldiers succeeded in arresting Marouf after his family was evacuated to a local hospital.
