(Jerusalem Post) Khaled Abu Toameh - A hitherto unknown group calling itself al-Tawhid and Jihad [Unification and Holy War], believed to be headed by Jordanian arch-terrorist Abu Musab Zarqawi, has distributed leaflets in Gaza threatening to kill a number of top PA officials belonging to Abbas' Fatah party. The leaflet is an indication that al-Qaeda elements had begun operating in Gaza. The leaflet specifically mentioned five Abbas loyalists who it said would soon be "slaughtered" as apostates: Muhammad Dahlan, Yasser Abed Rabbo, Samir Mashharawi, Nabil Amr, and Abu Ali Shaheen.
