The website of the official Palestinian Authority news agency Wafa has yet to publish any official condemnation of Sunday morning's murder of two Israelis and the wounding of another in the Barkan industrial zone.

Wafa coverage of the attack referred to it as a "shooting operation", referred to victims as "settlers" and focused on what it called "the occupation" blocking entrances to PA villages, raiding the Shuweika neighborhood of Tulkarm, arresting a young man there and putting a siege on anothern neighborhood.
