The Palestinian Authority lodged a formal protest with Israel after Israeli officials said they buried two Hamas militants killed last week by Israeli troops. Palestinian officials said the two should be buried according to Islamic tradition. Israel cited security concerns, saying a public funeral for brothers Imad and Adel Awadallah could lead to violence.
