Raed Al Karmi

Raed Al Karmi (died 14 January 2002) was a Palestinian political activist and member of the Fatah’s Tanzim.[1] He was reportedly responsible for the killing of two Tel Aviv restaurant owners in Tulkarem in 2001.[2] Israel also accused him of being related to the death of eight other Israelis.[2]

He was the target of missiles by Israeli forces in September 2001 and survived the attack.[2] However, two people he was riding with were killed.[2] Karmi was assassinated by Israel in Tulkarem on 14 January 2002 in a bombing near his home.[3][4]

A street in his hometown, Tulkarem, was named after him in 2015.[1]
