Relatives Who Assisted Terrorists to be Sent to Gaza


(Ha'aretz) - Kifah Ajouri is the brother of Ali Ajouri, a senior Tanzim operative responsible for the homicide bombing in Tel Aviv on Tisha b'Av. Kifah told police interrogators that he knew his brother made bombs. Kifah stood watch for him at his safe house and supplied him with food and bedding. Azzam Atzida is the brother of Nasser Atzida, a Hamas leader responsible for two attacks on Egged buses near Emmanuel in which 20 Israelis died. He knew his brother was involved in terrorism, supplied him with food, and lent him his car. Deportations to Gaza are meant to deter terrorists by threatening consequences to their families.
