PA spreads false libel that Israel is "striving to spread the Coronavirus" to Palestinians

Headline: “The prisoners’ institutions demanded to release Abu Wa’er and all the sick prisoners”

“The representatives of the bodies working in the field of the prisoners called to release sick prisoner Kamal Abu Wa’er (i.e., terrorist, involved in the murder of at least 4 people) and all the sick prisoners immediately, as a prelude to the release of all the prisoners from the occupation’s prisons…

Chairman of the [PA-funded] Prisoners’ Club Qadura Fares said that… the occupation is striving to spread the Coronavirus via the invasion of soldiers who are likely to be sick into Palestinian homes and mixing with the civilians and prisoners.

He explained that the occupation is giving the prisoners strips of cloth that do not protect against the virus instead of medical masks.”

Note: The PA claimed that this terrorist had suffered Israel's alleged deliberate medical neglect in prison.

However, later, the PLO Commission of Prisoners’ Affairs announced that “cancer patient prisoner Kamal Abu Wa’er has recovered from the Coronavirus after having become sick with it approximately two weeks ago.” [Official PA daily Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Aug. 7, 2020]
