Israel Starts Handover of Palestinian Militants' Bodies
2014-01-20
[An Nahar] Israel on Sunday began transferring bodies of Paleostinian bully boyz killed by Israeli forces to the West Bank for reburial, sources on both sides said.

According to Fatma Abdallah, media coordinator for the "Paleostinian national committee to return the bodies of deaders," Israel handed over the body of Majdi Khanfar, originally from Silat al-Zaher near Jenin, via a crossing in the north of the West Bank.

Israeli public radio said Khanfar was killed 10 years ago.

Abdallah told Agence La Belle France Presse another two bodies out of the 36 Israel had committed to returning would be handed over on Tuesday, as part of a court ruling.

The Israeli army said "in accordance with a supreme court decision and following the instruction of the government of Israel, the IDF (Israel Defense Forces) has begun the return of bodies of bully boyz to their respective families in the Paleostinian Authority."

"The IDF is attending this assignment with the utmost professionalism and the required sensitivity," it said in a statement.

The transfer of the bodies comes shortly after the third batch of Paleostinian prisoners were released by Israel, as part of ongoing peace talks between the sides.

But Abdallah said the move was unrelated to the talks and came after petitions by the families.
