KHARTOUM, Sudan -- U.S. diplomat John Granville knew his work toward restoring peace in Sudan put him in harm's way, but he told his family he wouldn't want to do anything else.
Granville was shot and mortally wounded early Tuesday in Khartoum by gunmen in a passing car who cut him off as he was being driven home in Sudan's capital. Sudanese officials insisted it was not a terrorist attack, but the U.S. embassy said it was too soon to determine the motive. Granville's driver, Abdel Rahman Abbas, was instantly killed in the shooting.

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) - Hamas security arrested about 200 supporters of the rival Fatah group, hurled grenades at the home of a Fatah leader and set up checkpoints across Gaza on Saturday after a mysterious beachside blast that killed five Hamas members and a 6- year-old girl.

CAIRO, Egypt - The political leader of Hamas said Saturday that the Islamic militant group is willing to allow negotiations with Israel but warned of a new uprising if talks fail to reach a deal for a Palestinian state within six months.
The comment from Khaled Mashaal was the strongest indication that Hamas might give moderate Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas a chance to try negotiating with Israel, but it was also the first time he set a deadline with an explicit threat of new fighting.
