Four Israelis were killed and 10 others were wounded in a Palestinian bomb attack at the Israeli checkpoint between Gaza and Egypt, a senior Israeli official said.

“As of now we have at least 10 people who were hurt, four dead and the efforts for the rescue operation still continue,” said Raanan Gissin, a top aide to Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, in an interview with Associated Press Television News.
