A 19-hour Gaza standoff ended Friday when Israeli forces opened fire on a group of women acting as human shields to protect Hamas militants.
One woman was killed and 10 more were wounded according to Palestinian officials and witnesses who were on the scene.
The women were attempting to protect Palestinian gunmen who were hiding out in a Gaza mosque. Several hundred women came to the mosque after militants asked women to form a ring around the mosque in Beit Hanoun, a northern Gaza town.
