Report: Egypt-Gaza border tunnel collapse kills Palestinian smuggler

None

An Egyptian security official says a tunnel used for smuggling between Egypt and Hamas-controlled Gaza has collapsed and killed at least one Palestinian.

 

The official says Sunday's collapse occurred when the tunnel's fragile sand ceiling fell under its own weight. He says Palestinian rescue workers are trying to extract the Palestinian man's body from the Gaza side of the border where he entered the tunnel. (AP)
