Family Matters
While palestinians in Gaza complain they are lacking fuel, palestinians elsewhere find inventive uses for theirs.
Security sources in Tulkarem said that a local man had burned his uncle during a family clash Saturday.
The police in Tulkarem arrested the attacker following an initial investigation. According to the police, the man poured petrol over his uncle during a family clash. The Thabet Thabet Hospital reported that the man has third degree burns all over his body.
The police have opened a file for continued investigation into the incident.
And in a bad day, all round, for palestinian family relations:
Akram Abu al-A’atayah, 60, was killed by a relative Saturday afternoon in what appears to be a family fued.
Sources close to the family said that Abu al- A’tayah, a resident of the al- Sheja’iyah neighborhood east of the Gaza city, was stabbed with a knife by a family member and was killed instantly.
