The Palestinian Authority (PA) has recognized 899 Gazans captured in the recent war as prisoners, making them eligible for monthly terror reward salaries. This decision significantly increases the PA's financial commitment to pay nearly NIS 60 million monthly to 9,750 recognized terrorist prisoners, alongside additional payments to martyrs' families.
The article from Palestinian Media Watch details the Palestinian Authority's recent decision to recognize 899 Gazans captured in the war as prisoners eligible for the "Pay-for-Slay" salaries. This move increases the PA's financial burden, as they now commit nearly NIS 60 million monthly to support 9,750 recognized terrorist prisoners and additional funds to martyrs' families.
This policy underscores the PA's prioritization of financial support for individuals involved in terrorism, despite its significant financial challenges. The decision has sparked criticism for reinforcing the PA's longstanding practice of rewarding violence and terrorism over other financial needs.
