PA sources: IDF kills Fatah militant, wounds another in Nablus raid

By Haaretz Service and News Agencies

Undercover Israel Defense Forces troops killed one Fatah militant and wounded another during a raid in the West Bank city of Nablus early Wednesday.

Palestinian sources said the raid had targeted the wounded man, a leader of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigade who recently signed a deal granting him amnesty from Israel but did not fulfill several of the document's conditions, group spokesman Mahdi Abu Ghazaleh said.

Witnesses said that an IDF army commando force infiltrated the old city of Nablus disguised as Palestinian security forces, and spoke in Arabic to passersby.

The unit then fired at the militants from rooftops, killing Amar Ein Abousi and injuring Sufian Kandeel, sources from within Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades reported.

Members of the group had said earlier that the two men were armed, but Abu Ghazaleh, who was at the scene of the shooting, said after that they were not.

An IDF spokesperson said said troops fired toward two armed men, killing one and injuring the other.

Israel offered the amnesty to about 200 West Bank militants, mostly from Fatah, over the summer as part of efforts to bolster Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas, of Fatah, in his rivalry with the Islamic militant group Hamas.

Under the deal, the militants agreed to sit in a Palestinian jail for three months and surrender their weapons. Kandeel had agreed not to harm Israelis, but did not accept the other conditions, said Abu Ghazaleh, who also signed the amnesty deal.

"We signed the list but will not go along with the Israeli conditions and we said ... 'We will not sit in jail and not give in our weapons because they are valuable to us,'" Abu Ghazaleh said. "We don't believe the Israeli government and all that they say."

Abbas is currently negotiating with Israel ahead of an international peace summit to be held in Annapolis, Maryland in late November
