(2 Oct 2000) Natural Sound

Israelis and Palestinians exchanged fierce gun fire in the West Bank town of Ramallah on Monday, ignoring appeals from around the world to cease fire.

Palestinian gunmen fired from the tops of buildings onto Israeli soldiers.

The street battles, sparked by a visit last week by Ariel Sharon, the leader of the hard-line opposition Likud party, to the Jerusalem shrine revered by Muslims and Jews, had taken the lives of 35 Palestinians and eight Israelis by Monday.

More than 1,000 Palestinians have been injured, by Palestinian count.
