Three British parliamentarians came under Israeli gunfire during a visit to Rafah in southern Gaza, but nobody was hurt, a British official said on Saturday.
The incident took place along the Gaza Strip-Egypt border on Friday.
"They just reported the incident to us and as I said we will follow that up with the Israelis," the official told Reuters.
An Israeli military spokesman said that the army found out about the lawmakers' claims only from media reports, not through an official complaint, and that it was looking into the report. (Albawaba.com)
