Tulkarem District Governor Abdallah Kmeil: "I doubt everything Hamas says. It is impossible that within 48 hours they would capture a person, interrogate him, try him, and shoot him in this truly ISIS-like and disgusting manner, which distorts the image of the Palestinians after the overwhelming popular support for the Palestinian cause in all the world states. There is no person in this world, worldwide, who will see these horrific scenes and not certainly take a [negative] position."
