Photographed Perpetrator of Ramallah Lynching Killed in Israel Air Force Strike in Gaza
(Jerusalem Post) Aziz Salha, one of the perpetrators of the Ramallah lynching in 2000, was killed in an Israel Air Force strike in central Gaza, the IDF reported on Thursday. Salha became famous for waving his hands out the window that were covered in the blood of two IDF reserve soldiers that he and other perpetrators had murdered. IDF reservists Vadim Norzhich and Yosef Avrahami were lynched by a Palestinian mob while detained at the el-Bireh police station in Ramallah after accidentally entering the city controlled by the Palestinian Authority. Salha was arrested in 2001, but was released as part of the Gilad Shalit prisoner exchange deal in 2011 and deported to Gaza.
