Commitment to terrorists' salaries, reiterated by PA PM
“[PA] Interim Prime Minister Rami Hamdallah received a number of delegations in Ramallah yesterday [March 18, 2019] for the conclusion of his role as [PA] national unity government prime minister… Among the delegations were the National Council for [PA] Security Forces Pensioners led by Maj. Gen. Salah Shadid, the National Association of the Families of the Martyrs (Shahids) [of Palestine], and the Independent Human Rights Council…
Hamdallah again emphasized the commitment of the leadership, led by [PA] President Mahmoud Abbas and the government, to pay the allowances of the Martyrs and prisoners in full, despite all of the difficult delays and conditions that we are facing (refers to Israeli Anti “Pay-for-Slay” Law to deduct terrorist salaries; see note below –Ed.).
Hamdallah praised the Security Forces pensioners’ sacrifice at all stages of our cause, while emphasizing the need to provide them with dignified lives as befits their sacrifices.”
