ALBAWABA - The Palestinian Islamic Jihad Movement announced on Wednesday the death of one of its leaders Ra'iq Abdul Rahman Bisharat, in an Israeli attack in the Gaza Strip.
In an official statement, the Islamic Jihad Movement said: "We mourn the martyr leader Ra'iq Abdul Rahman Bisharat, who was treacherously assassinated by the occupation last night in Tammun in the West Bank."
Late last night, an Israeli special forces unit killed freed prisoner Ra'iq Abdul Rahman Basharat in the town of Tammun, south of Tubas. They seized his body and arrested a wanted man after wounding him, along with several others, Palestinian media confirmed.
Who is Ra'iq Abdul Rahman Bisharat?
Ra'iq Abdul Rahman Bisharat was a freed prisoner who spent more than nine years in Israeli prisons. His wife was killed during the Al-Aqsa Intifada while pregnant with their child.
Basharat was also injured during the Al-Aqsa Intifada, and both his hands were amputated. He has been wanted by the Israeli occupation since 2023. The occupation forces claim that Basharat is the most dangerous man in Tubas.
