Zeev, Did you know this scientist? Nuclear scientist shot dead in Gaza Strip By Margot Dudkevitch JERUSALEM (December 3) - Prof. Baruch Singer, a scientist from the Nahal Sorek nuclear research site, was shot and killed by two Palestinian terrorists dressed in IDF fatigues as he drove between Elei Sinai and Nisanit in the northern Gaza Strip yesterday morning. After ensuring that Singer, 51, of Gedera, was dead, the terrorists continued shooting at vehicles, and a gun battle with soldiers ensued until an IDF tank shell killed the terrorists. Hamas claimed responsibility for the attack, identifying the two terrorists as Jihad Musri, 17, and Muslama Araraj, of Beit Lahiya. Shortly after the attack, Palestinians fired three mortar shells at Nissanit. No one was hurt. According to residents of the area, Singer had driven his son, a soldier, to a nearby army outpost and was leaving the area when he was shot. His wife Nurit told Israel Radio he had called her to tell her he was driving on the road between the two communities and was shot. "Around 8 he called me and told me he was driving between Elei Sinai and Nisanit, and said he was wounded and told me to call the police. I asked him how to contact them and he said dial 100," she said. After lightly wounding Singer in the first burst of gunfire, the terrorists raced after his vehicle and shot him again, killing him. Sigalit Ben-Abu, a Nisanit resident, was returning from Ashkelon shortly before 8 when she spotted the two terrorists. "I saw two soldiers shooting at Israeli vehicles. They were positioned close to the edge of the road not far from the army's target practice area. It was only after that I realized the two 'soldiers' were in fact the terrorists. I was alone in the car and I bent down and continued driving," she told The Jerusalem Post. Arik Harpaz, a resident of Elei Sinai whose daughter was murdered with her boyfriend when terrorists infiltrated the community two months ago, was at home when the attack occurred. "We need a proper fence to be erected around the communities. That is the only thing that will keep the terrorists out. At my age, we are forced to deal with burying our children and their friends. I cannot sit quietly any longer, it's enough," he said. Singer, who is survived by his wife, three sons, and a daughter, will be buried at 2 this afternoon in the Gedera cemetery. jpost.com
