Joel Greenberg, filed Monday morning. Three other American papers in this archive carried the same Khan Yunis raid that day and all three said ten; the Times said nine, counting from Palestinian medical officials at the scene while the wire counted later. Down the page, settlers fire on olive pickers at Akraba and kill Hani Yusuf, 24, with a shot to the stomach.
