| According to the sources, Israeli forces killed Bilal Abu Amshe -- the head of the Al Aqsa Brigades in the Tulkarem area -- Ghanem Ghanem and Imam Ibrahim. Palestinian security sources described the encounter as an ambush by Israeli troops. They said Amshe, 29, and Ghanem, 31, were members of Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, but identified the third man as Ayman Barahmeh, 25. Palestinian security said he was a friend of the other two men, but not a member of the militant group. Barahmeh's 5-year-old son was killed by Israel seven months ago, the security sources said. |
