However, after Ashraqat Katnani, 16, was killed after she tried to stab Israelis near Nablus, the girl's father, Taha, was quoted by Palestinian media saying that his daughter set out to seek "martyrdom" and "I'm proud of her." Ofir Gendelman, Prime Minister Netanyahu's Arabic-language spokesman, said that the father also said: "She wanted to stab, asked me about the best knives in the house."
