Fadi Washha was a terrorist and a member of the proscribed al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades. This thread describing his death is a muddle of disinformation and propaganda. Let us explain.
#FadiWashha served several prison sentences for terrorism offences, the last one from 2014 to 2019.
Fadi and his cousin Muataz Washha were involved in a 25 February 2014 shooting attack. Fadi admitted to this and even surrendered the weapon used in the attack. See Israeli Security Agency statement at shabak.gov.il/publications/P…
Fadi was affiliated to Fatah in Birzeit, here is the announcement of his release from prison on 26 February 2019 and celebration of his release by Fatah members in March of that year.
Fadi also appear to have been a member of the al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades (a designated terror org). He was dressed in military fatigue in his funeral procession and his body was carried by apparent members of the group.
Commanders in the Palestinian National Security Forces the First Battalion SSI, and Dr. Laila Ghannam, the governor of Ramallah and al-Bireh and former member of Fatah’s leadership committee for the governorate were at his funeral.
Fadi is documented taking part in violent riots in the past.
We have seen reports of violent riots on 15 May 2021 near Beit El & police using tear gas & stun grenades. Only the Pal Ministry of Health reported the head injury from "live bullet" on that day. The PRCS only mentioned rubber bullets. We could not verify either of those claims.
