RAFAH, Gaza Strip (Reuters) - Palestinian gunmen and Egyptian forces exchanged fire at Gaza's border with Egypt on Monday and a Palestinian civilian was killed in the fighting, medical workers said.
Two members of the Egyptian forces and four Palestinians were wounded in the violence, which erupted a day after Cairo closed the breached frontier.
Hamas Islamists blasted open the Rafah border crossing on January 23 and Egypt allowed Palestinians to enter its territory to stock up on supplies in defiance of an Israeli-led blockade of the Gaza Strip.
On Sunday, Egyptian forces used barbed wire and metal barricades to seal the only remaining gap on the Egyptian side of the frontier at Rafah, a town straddling the border.
