PA Blasts Hamas for Executing 'Collaborators with Israel'

The Palestinian Authority (PA) on Saturday blasted Hamas officials for executing more than 20 alleged collaborators with Israel on Thursday and Friday, the Ma’an news agency reported.

According to the report, the Secretary-General of PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas's office, al-Tayyib Abd al-Rahim, said that the executions had been conducted illegally outside of the Palestinian court system and could thus not be considered to have gone through fair process.
