Nablus – Ma’an – Undercover gunmen opened fire at the home and car of Ahmad Hannoun former attorney-general of Nablus and current chief prosecutor of Jenin in Jamma’in village south of Nablus.

Palestinian security sources confirmed to Ma’an that four gunmen caused material losses to both Hannoun’s house and car, after firing several rounds from a blue Fiat Uno, then fled the scene early Sunday morning.

Palestinian security systems seized the car, abandoned near the scene, and have opened an investigation into the incident.

The department of the general prosecutor issued a statement Sunday saying the ‘anonymous’ attack was understood as being directed against the reputation of general prosecutor and judicial authority.
