well he didn't exactly fail, i mean he did blow himself up...
A Palestinian militant was killed in a suicide car bombing against an Israeli convoy in an army-patrolled corridor on the Egypt-Gaza border on Friday (May 28), officials and witnesses said.
Two soldiers were injured when their vehicle hit another during the ambush, the army said.
Three armed factions -- Islamic Jihad, al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades and Popular Resistance Committees -- claimed joint responsibility for the attack near the Rafah refugee camp.
Military officials said the border attack was carried out in a four-wheel-drive vehicle packed with explosives that targeted a bus full of Israeli workers heading for the Rafah border crossing with Egypt. The army said the car hit a dirt mound as it approached and the driver jumped out and opened fire. "As he was shooting, his vehicle exploded, killing him," an army statement said.
