Palestinians ride on a donkey cart in front of women and children as they march during a protest by the Islamic group Hamas against Israel's economic blockade of the Gaza Strip, near the Erez Crossing in the northern Gaza Strip, April 19, 2008. Hamas militants rammed bomb-laden cars into an Israeli border crossing with the Gaza Strip on Saturday, killing three of the militants and wounding 13 Israeli soldiers, the Islamist group and the Israeli army said. The bombing at Kerem Shalom was the third major Palestinian attack in less than two weeks on Israeli border crossings used to transfer limited supplies of humanitarian goods and fuel to the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip, home to 1.5 million people.
