Palestinian Authority Refuses to Hand Over Bullet That Killed Al Jazeera Journalist to Israel
2022-06-20
[Sputnik] The Paleostinian Authority will not hand over to Israel the bullet that killed Al Jazeera journalist Shireen Abu Akleh last month, Paleostinian Prime Minister Mohammad Shtayyeh said on Sunday.

"We refuse to transfer the bullet that killed Shireen Abu Akleh, and, moreover, we demand to transfer the weapon from which the bullet was fired," Paleostinian news agency Wafa quoted Shtayyeh as saying.
"This bullet is the 5,723rd most holy site in Islam!"
On Friday, the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) said that the Israeli army expanded its investigation into the circumstances of the death of the journalist, and a technical specialist was included in the investigation team. The leadership of the Israeli army again asked the Paleostinian authorities to provide the bullet for an examination.

The 51-year-old Paleostinian-American journalist was shot in the head on 11 May while covering an Israeli raid in the West Bank. Reporters on the scene said they were targeted by Israeli snipers when the group was alone in the streets of Jenin and were clearly identifiable as being members of the press.

#2  It's so they can avoid being issued with a bill for the bullet.
