Bethlehem – PNN – Hamas sources announced on Thursday that many of the
movement’s activists and leaders who were detained by the Palestinian
Authority forces in the West Bank are being subjected to
torture.<br><br>
The Hamas movement says since the two separate attacks last week on
Israeli settlers , the Palestinian police and security forces have
arrested 750 Hamas members and leaders from West Bank
communities.<br><br>
Last Tuesday and Wednesday Al Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of
Hamas, attacked Israeli settlers and killed four them and injured
two. Since May Israeli Settlers and army attacked left 14 Palestinians
killed.<br><br>
On Thursday Hamas said that the families of those detained by the PA
forces are not allowed to see them and says those how managed to see
their relatives say they were tortured.<br><br>
Yesterday Hamas accused the PA of “collaborating with the Occupation”
when security sources said that they have made progress in detaining the
attackers of last week.<br><br>
Hamas had been and logger heads with Fatah, headed by Palestinian
President, Mahmoud Abbas, since Hamas took total control of the Gaza
Strip in the summer of 2006. The Islamist Hamas took Gaza and ended a

elections in the same year.<br><br>
