"Israeli soldiers killed four Palestinian militants, including a one-armed leader of the militant Islamic Jihad group, in an intense gun battle Monday, Palestinian witnesses and doctors said.

The army said troops came under fire as they attempted to arrest the militia leader, Yasser Abu Ayish, at his home and returned fire. The army confirmed three gunmen had been killed, while one soldier was lightly injured.

Palestinian witnesses said four people were killed and the militant's house in the Rafah refugee camp was destroyed.

The militant leader was identified as Abu Ayish, whose legs and arm were blown off last year when a rocket he was building exploded prematurely.

Abu Ayish, who was using a wheelchair, was the leader of the Islamic Jihad military wing in the Rafah area, and was mainly involved in building homemade rockets. He was high on Israel's wanted list."
