Gunmen Attack PA News Agency Office in Gaza - Khaled Abu Toameh
Amr al-Fara, head of the official PA news agency Wafa in Khan Yunis, was severely beaten Tuesday by five masked gunmen who stormed his office and destroyed all the equipment and furniture. Fatah officials said they were almost certain that the attack was carried out by Hamas. Hamas spokesmen pointed out that Abbas was using PA-funded media to defame Hamas and undermine its government.
