Fatah squad tried to assassinate Sharon The Fatah Al Aksa Brigade vowed it would continue its attempts to target Prime Minister Ariel Sharon despite a failed attempt by cell members recently to ambush Sharon at his home in the Old City's Moslem Quarter. A leaflet issued this morning in Ramallah confirmed that members of its organization had been involved in a recent attempt on Sharon's life, Israel Radio reported. A five-member squad staked out the area around Sharon's home near the Damascus Gate in the Old City, waiting for an opportunity to ambush the prime minister during a rare visit to the apartment. One of the terrorist lived next door to Sharon's home in the Moslem Quarter and allegedly attempted to recruit east Jerusalem residents to join the group. Security forces uncovered the group before it was able to carry out the assassination. Three of the five cell members were caught by Israeli security officials and are awaiting trial. The organization said it would continue trying to kill Sharon. In another close escape, IDF Chief of General Staff Lt.-Gen. Shaul Mofaz came away unscathed when a bomb exploded near the first jeep of a convoy he was riding in near Beit Hagai in the Hebron Hills last night.
