GAZA, May 17 (Reuters) - A Hamas member was shot and critically wounded in the Gaza Strip on Thursday despite a ceasefire between the rival factions, Hamas said.

Hamas accused masked Fatah fighters of carrying out the attack in Gaza City. Fatah had no immediate response.

Fatah separately accused Hamas gunmen of abducting five Fatah members in violation of the ceasefire.

Local residents attend a demonstration, calling for Israel's government to take action to stop the Kassam rocket attacks, in the southern city of Sderot May 20, 2007. Prime Minister Ehud Olmert threatened stronger Israeli military action in the Gaza Strip unless Hamas halted its rocket attacks on southern Israel. The sign at right reads: "Failures go home."
