Five Palestinians killed in gunfire
Karin Laub, The Associated Press
Transcribed from the clipping
JERUSALEM — Israeli combat helicopters battered a West Bank village Wednesday to rescue wounded Israeli soldiers trapped by Palestinian fire, and five Palestinians were killed in a battle in the Gaza Strip. The clashes did not scuttle plans for the highest level meeting since fighting began 35 days ago.
