A fight broke out between members of al-Masri clan and persons affiliated with Hamas at around 10:30pm, on Thursday, 2 October 2008, after a bus broke down in al-Masri neighborhood in â€کJourat Ellout, in Khan Younis.
A number of Hamas supporters were on board the bus on their way back to Rafah after participating in a collective wedding party organized in Gaza.
An argument was heated between the bus passengers and members of al-Masri clan because the passengers were shouting and clapping while the bus was in repair.
The argument developed into a fight and stone-throwing.
The bus passengers fled towards Shbeir Gas Station and members of al-Masri clan followed them.
There were masked gunmen standing by the gas station, who intervened to resolve the dispute.
One of them opened fire, resulting in the killing of Muhammad Farhan al-Masri, 19, shortly after he was shot in the right side.
