"Israel’s recent release of 250 Palestinian terrorists serving life sentences for murder has created an unprecedented situation: 160 of them are now millionaires, each having received more than 1 million shekels from the Palestinian Authority’s “pay-for-slay” program during their incarceration.
The financial windfall represents one of the most troubling aspects of the U.S.-brokered Israel-Hamas ceasefire that took effect last week. While Israeli families mourned victims and awaited the return of hostages, convicted killers walked free having profited handsomely from their crimes—collectively earning at least 229.5 million shekels, or approximately $70 million, according to Palestinian Media Watch (PMW).
These figures exclude additional stipends paid to their family members, meaning the total payouts were likely far higher. The remaining 90 released terrorists also received substantial sums, though less than the millionaire threshold."
