Explosives attack on Israeli boat
From correspondents in Jerusalem
November 23, 2002

THREE Israeli sailors were wounded early today when a fishing boat packed with explosives rammed a naval patrol boat off the northern coast of the Gaza Strip, an Israeli military spokesman said.

It was not possible to establish whether one or more Palestinians had been aboard the fishing boat when it exploded, he said.

Israeli military radio reported however that two suicide attackers had been on board.

The crew of the boat patrolling off Gaza spotted the fishing boat and told the two passengers to identify themselves, the radio said.
