It was payback time in Gaza this week.
Leading Fatah militant Samih al-Madhoun had previously pledged to kill all members of the Islamist movement Hamas.
But, it didn’t quite work out that way.
Al-Madhoun, who had topped the Hamas group’s wanted list of Abbas loyalists and had spearheaded Fatah’s fight against Hamas, was captured in Gaza this week by Hamas. He was dragged into the streets by Hamas. He was shot six times in the chest. Then the victorious Hamas gunmen dragged his body through the refugee camp on Thursday.
The whole ordeal was aired on Hamas TV live from Gaza.
Samih was not the only Fatah member to face such a horrible demise.
Hamas executed Fatah militant Samih al-Madhoun and then dragged his body through the streets.
