A total of 387 Palestinians have been killed by other Palestinians since the intifada broke out in December 1987, and 1,285 have been wounded in internecine attacks, Israel’s Government Press Office announced this week.
Three Palestinians were murdered and three more were injured in the past week alone by fellow Palestinians.
The press office said its figure did not include five Palestinian bystanders killed in attacks aimed at Jews or the 37 prisoners in detention centers murdered by other inmates.
There were 24 such murders at the Ketziot detention camp in the Negev, the press office said.
