The American Department of Justice has issued arrest warrants for two Palestinians serving long jail sentences in Israeli prisons for a terrorist attack that led to the death of a US citizen and left a British woman seriously wounded.
Ayad Fatafta and Kifah Ghanimat launched the attack on Kristine Luken, an American citizen, and her friend, Kay Wilson, on December 18, 2010.
The two women were hiking near an archaeological site when the attack — carried out with knives and a machete — took place. Ms Luken, who was 44, died at the scene, while Ms Wilson, a tour guide, was seriously wounded but survived.
Today, Ms Wilson said in a Facebook post: “Wanna know the best I’ve news have had for six years? The US Department of Justice has just issued an arrest warrant for the terrorists who tried to murder me and murdered my friend Kristine Luken.
