Stabber and car rammer terrorists are victims of Israel's “terror and cold-blooded murder,” says PA PM

PA Prime Minister Muhammad Shtayyeh: “Israel must bear responsibility for the terror and cold-blooded murder. The latest cases of this were what happened with Muhammad Shawkat Abu Salima (i.e., terrorist stabber), and the death as a Martyr of child Muhammad Nidal Younes (i.e., terrorist car rammer) this morning.”

Muhammad Shawkat Salima – 25-year-old Palestinian terrorist who stabbed and wounded 1 Israeli civilian near the Damascus Gate of the Old City of Jerusalem on Dec. 4, 2021, and then attempted to stab 2 Israeli border police officers who shot and killed him in self-defense. Security camera footage shows Salima repeatedly lunged at the officers even after being shot, causing them to continue firing out of fear he was trying to detonate a suicide bomb or use another weapon.
