Hamas Executes Palestinian for Israeli Collaboration
(Reuters) Gaza's Islamist-run government on Wednesday executed Abdel-Karim Shrair, 37, a former policeman convicted of collaborating with Israel, the Hamas interior ministry said. The man was executed by firing squad after being sentenced to death last month for helping "the Israeli occupation." Under Palestinian law, executions should be carried out only with the approval of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, but Hamas ignored this.
