Fatah welcomes shooting attacks in Hevron

  • 9 years ago
Aqsa Martyrs' Brigade, the so-called "military wing" of Fatah headed by Palestinian Authority chairman Mahmoud Abbas, is welcoming Friday's shooting attacks against Israelis in the Hevron area.
"The Brigades consider this action a natural response to the occupation's recurring crimes against our unarmed Palestinian people and its violation of the sanctity of our holy places," the statement continued.
The group has claimed responsibility for a series of recent shooting attacks directed against Israeli soldiers and civilians, including the horrific murder of Rabbi Eitam and Naama Henkin, who were shot dead in front of their children.
