Israeli officials threatened on Wednesday to continue assassinating Palestinians in the occupied West Bank, Israeli media reported.

Communications Minister Yoaz Hendel told public broadcaster Kan that the Oslo Accords do not give any immunity to any Palestinians.

Hendel insisted upon Israel’s “right”, as stipulated in the accords, to enter PA-controlled areas and carry out operations there.

Hendel alleged that the three Palestinians killed in Nablus were planning to carry out attacks against Israeli targets. He reiterated that security cooperation with the Palestinian Authority “has been and is still an Israeli interest.”

The remarks came a day after three Palestinians were killed in broad daylight by Israeli Special Forces in Nablus.

Ashraf Muhammad Abdalfattah Mbaslat, 21, Muhammad Raed Hussein Dakheel, 22, and Adham Mabrouk al-Shishani, 21, all from Nablus’ Old City, were shot in broad daylight on Tuesday by Israeli forces, in what has been described as an unlawful, extrajudicial killing.

The death of the Palestinian young men sparked widespread condemnation in the occupied territories. A general strike was also observed in the major West Bank cities, including Nablus, Ramallah, Jenin, and Tulkarm.

  1. Can anyone who follows the news have any admiration for the genocidal zionists racist occupiers??? They are out to exterminate those who have lived there for hundreds and some, thousands of years. What is the UN for, if not to prevent what we are able to see, hear, and read with our own eye’s and ears….????

  2. why would they have to threaten ?
    if they want to continue assassinations they will just do so.

  3. aren’t assassinations against the geneva convention, and a crime against humanity? Oh silly me, we’re not supposed to point out the crimes that israeLIES commit on a daily basis, because its anti semitism. you know the fake cry from the faux hebrews every time someone points out israLIES crimes.
