Hamas hangs Palestinian for 'collaborating' with Israel

Hamas hangs Palestinian for 'collaborating' with Israel: Gaza's Hamas rulers on Saturday executed a Palestinian convicted of collaborating with Israel and two others deemed complicit in murder, the interior ministry said.

The ministry said in a statement that the three men were hanged in a "security centre" in Gaza City.

It was the first time this year that the Islamist movement had carried out an execution of someone accused of "collaborating" with the Israelis.

The statement did not give the men's names, ages or any other information.

The last time the death sentence for aiding Israel was carried out was in July 2011, when two Palestinians were executed on the charge.
