Palestinian terrorist Abdul Aziz Saleha bragged about participating in the 2000 Ramallah lynching of two Israeli reservist soldiers Vadim Nurzhitz and Yosef Avrahami, in a video posted on March 1, 2021. Saleha said that he stabbed and strangled one of the soldiers, "until he died," then he raised his hands that were covered in his blood through the window so people could see what had happened. Saleha raising his bloodied hands was captured in an iconic photo of the lynching. He had served ten years in Israeli prison and was released in the Shalit prisoner exchange deal in 2011. On October 3, 2024 he was killed by an Israeli airstrike in the Gaza Strip. The video was posted on the YouTube channel of Ali Asafra, who had served time in Israeli prison with Abdul Aziz Saleha.
Ali Asafra: "Abdul Aziz, if I recall five or six pictures from the Intifada – maybe ten pictures made immortal by the Al-Aqsa Intifada – your picture will be among the top five or top ten?"
Abdul Aziz Saleha: "It is number one."
Asafra: "He has the most famous picture from the Al-Aqsa Intifada. What is the story behind that picture?"
Saleha: "I was 19-years old, and the Intifada broke out.

"Soldiers from the special forces entered Ramallah, and they were led to the police station, and that was it. So I killed one of them."
Asafra: "You killed one from the special forces?"
Saleha: "Yes, one."
Asafra: "Did you kill him with your own hands...?"
Saleha: "The bottom line is that I stabbed and strangled him. I stabbed him and then I strangled him until he died. I had blood all over my clothes, because I strangled him. I peered out of the window with all the blood, and I saw that the people outside did not know what was going on inside. So I raised my hands with the blood in the window so that the people could see."
Asafra: "This is the most famous picture."
Saleha: "Yes, it became very famous."
