Palestine PM: Killing a “crazy, dangerous and cowardly act.”
Spiritual leader of Hamas Sheikh Ahmad Yasin, assassinated by Israel.
Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) extra-judicially assassinated the spiritual leader of Hamas Sheikh Ahmad Yasin while
leaving a mosque after he performed his predawn prayers in Gaza early Monday. The martyr founded the Islamic Resistance
Movement under the 37-year-old Israeli occupation.
Palestinian PM Ahmad Qurei described the assassination of Yasin as a “crazy, dangerous and cowardly act.” IOF sealed off
the Palestinian Territory indefinitely. The West Bank and Gaza Strip went on general strike in public mourning.
