More details emerge on Hamas execution
Palestinian daily Al-Quds reports that Hamas official Ayman Taha was executed three days ago, following months of detention for allegedly maintaining contacts with intelligence services in Arab countries, and for involvement in shady financial dealings.
Taha was shot several times in the head and chest, and his body now lies in the Shifa hospital, the report says. Hamas initially barred the incident from publication, it writes, until today when it released the information.
