Hamdi Quran is a member of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. He came to prominence when he was one of a four man PFLP team which assassinated Rehavam Ze'evi, the Tourism Minister of Israel, on 17 October 2001. Quran was imprisoned by the Palestinian National Authority in a Jericho prison under the supervision of British and American wardens in accordance with a deal worked out between US President, George W. Bush and Israeli Prime Minister, Ariel Sharon, in April 2002.

In early 2006, the newly elected Hamas government announced its intention to release Ze'evi's assassins.^[1] The US and British supervisors guarding the Palestinian prisoners in Jericho prison were removed due to safety concerns on 14 March 2006, and on the same day the Israeli Defense Forces besieged the prison in the Operation Bringing Home the Goods, taking Quran and other security prisoners into Israeli custody. He was sentenced by an Israeli court to life imprisonment. In addition to the Zeevi sentence, Quran was given 100 years for other shootings and bombings against Israelis.^[2]
