Hamas has announced that it will begin executing anyone found to be collaborating with Israel.
The head of security in the Gaza Strip, Hamas Interior Minister Fathi Hammad, made the announcement and also stated that they had arrested ten known collaborators.
Earlier in April, a Palestinian man was hanged by Hamas after being charged with being an informant for Israel. His identity was not released by Hamas.
The Palestinian Authority condemned the execution, stating that they had not authorized it. Executions are not supposed to take place without PA President Mahmoud Abbas' permission.
In the past Hamas, had granted pardons to collaborators who turned themselves in, confessed, and repented.
