Interfactional "Palestinian" fighting threatened to explode Monday morning after gunmen in Gaza City fired into a car taking Arab children to school, killing three of them.

An adult was also killed, and at least four other people were wounded.

Eyewitnesses told news agencies the killers had intentionally targeted children in the school-lined Palestine Street.

The little victims, aged between 6 and 10, were the children of a senior intelligence official in the Palestinian Authority.

Their father is believed to be a loyalist of PA chairman Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah movement.

Tensions between Fatah and the ruling Hamas terror group have been ratcheted up in recent days.

Abbas is pressuring Hamas to acquiesce to western demands that it recognize Israel, thereby bringing an end to the sanctions imposed on the PA by members of the international community.

Speaking in Tehran while on a visit to Iran Sunday, Hamas leader and PA prime minister Ismail Haniyeh insisted his group would never recognize the Jewish state.
