Looks like Hamas and Fatah are caught in the dreaded cycle of violence: Gaza gunmen kill one Hamas member, wound four.

GAZA (Reuters) - Gunmen in Gaza shot and killed one Hamas member and wounded four others from the Islamic militant group on Wednesday in renewed violence after Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh called for rival factions to show restraint.

No group claimed responsibility for the shootings, which came amid a power struggle between Hamas, now in charge of the Palestinian government, and President Mahmoud Abbas’s Fatah faction.

Hamas sources said three unarmed Hamas members were kidnapped at dawn in Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip. They were later dumped on a street with gunshot wounds in their legs. Medics said one of the wounded men later died.

Relatives of the three Hamas members blamed Fatah gunmen for the abduction.
