Militants bomb Gaza YMCA library
BBC NEWS | Middle East | Militants bomb Gaza YMCA library
Gunmen have attacked the Young Men's Christian Association (YMCA) in Gaza City and blown up its library, burning thousands of books, its director says.
Eissa Saba said 14 men overpowered the centre's two security guards before placing bombs in the library and main office. The latter did not explode.
The guards said the gunmen had asked them why they worked for "infidels".
Gaza, which is controlled by the Islamist group Hamas, is home to 3,500 Christians, mostly Greek Orthodox.
