PA admits terrorist shooter “intended to die as a Martyr” and “took steps” toward terror

Official PA TV newsreader: “A young person [Muhannad Al-Mazar’ah] (i.e., terrorist) was shot by the occupation and died as a Martyr next to the town of Al-Eizariya, east of occupied Jerusalem... Hebrew media sources claimed that young Al-Mazar’ah shot at settlers at the entrance to the settlement of Ma’ale Adumim… and wounded some of them…

Official PA TV reporter: “[Al-Mazar’ah] left behind an audio recording, and it is as if he is emphasizing his intention to die as a Martyr, or he is taking a step towards the Palestinian resistance (i.e., terror).”

Muhannad Muhammad Suleiman Al-Mazar’ah – 20-year-old Palestinian terrorist who shot and wounded 6 Israelis next to a shopping mall in Ma’ale Adumim, east of Jerusalem, on Aug. 1, 2023. An off-duty Israeli border police officer shot and killed Al-Mazar’ah, thereby ending his attack. Al-Mazar’ah wore a municipal employee’s vest during the attack to avoid being identified as an attacker. He had a work permit and had been working as a janitor in the Ma’ale Adumim municipal community center for several years.

“Resistance” is a PA euphemism for terror and violence against Israel.
