The Palestinian Fatah movement praised Thursday the two terrorists who carried out the Barkan and Ofra attacks, and were killed by the IDF soldiers on Wednesday night.

"The martyrs of the homeland are heroes, they drew the map of the homeland with their blood,” the organization stressed in a statement.

Fatah is headed by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and all senior officials in the political and security echelon of the Palestinian Authority belong to the movement.
