PA to Grant "Pay-for-Slay" Payments to 661 Hamas Terrorists from Gaza


(Palestinian Media Watch) Itamar Marcus - The PA has announced that since Hamas launched its war on Oct. 7, an additional 3,550 terrorists have been recognized as prisoners who will receive "pay-for-slay" payments, including 661 Hamas terrorists from Gaza. The rise in the number of prisoners will cost the PA an additional $1,331,000 per month. These are only the initial costs. According to PA law, prisoner salaries will rise the longer they are in prison. In addition, the official PA daily announced that there are 23,210 additional "martyrs" whose families are eligible to receive monthly stipends as well. "Martyrs" include all terrorists who were killed attacking Israelis. The PA does not differentiate between Hamas terrorists who committed atrocities after invading Israel on Oct. 7 or Hamas terrorists killed by Israel in the ensuing war. They are all considered "martyrs."
