Hamas blames Fatah official for attack

Angry Hamas officials on Friday blamed a powerful Gaza strongman and senior Fatah official for a shooting attack on Ismail Haniyeh’s entourage that killed one of the prime minister’s bodyguards and wounded his son.

Ismail Radwan, a Hamas spokesman, told a news conference that Mohammed Dahlan “planned and organised the (attempted) assassination of Palestinian Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh”.
