An Israeli court in Jerusalem sentenced the head of the militant wing of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine to life in prison.
Saed Abu Hnish, 29, was accused of planning a suicide attack at an illegal Israeli settlement in the West Bank that killed an Israeli woman and three of her children.
The court also ordered the Palestinian, who served as the head of the PFLP's Abu Ali Mustafa Brigades, to pay 60 million shekels in compensation to the Israeli family residing in the illegal settlement of Itmar near Nablus.
Hnish was sentenced to life at the Ramon prison in the Israeli town of Nafha.
A spokesperson for defendant, who is from Beit Dajan in the northern West Bank, told Ma'an that Hnish holds a bachelor's in political science from An-Najah National University in Nablus.
The attack on the illegal settlement occurred on 20 June 2002, when a Palestinian stormed the area and hid in one of the houses before clashing with Israeli troops and settlers, which lead to the deaths of four Israelis. The Palestinian was killed, as well.
You noticed that he killed the civilians sort of, well, by accident it would seem.
Amazing that he did so. After all, instead of crashing into a civilian house, he could have invaded a police station or army camp.
