PALESTINE: THREE EXECUTED IN GAZA STRIP

two convicted murderers and a man found guilty of treason were hanged early in the morning, the ministry of interior in the Gaza Strip said. It did not name the men and gave few details of the allegations against them.
The executions were carried out "in accordance with our religion, rulings of the Palestinian law and in preserving the rights of citizens and achieving the security of the community", the statement said.
Gaza City's military court sentenced one man for collaboration with Israeli intelligence and involvement in murder. Another was found guilty of premeditated murder by a court in Deir al-Balah, and the third of kidnapping, raping and killing a boy under 16-year-old by a Khan Younis court.
The ministry of interior said relatives of the victims did not agree to an amnesty for the death penalty sentences.
