Palestinian factions clashed in the Gaza Strip on Friday, leaving two militants and a young boy wounded. The fighting comes despite a power-sharing agreement between the two main factions, Fatah and Hamas, that was supposed to end internecine violence that left dozens of Palestinians dead this winter.

The young boy was injured by a grenade.
