An organized attempt to assassinate Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas took place on Tuesday after the leader was handed a 24-hour ultimatum by the "Sons of Abu Jandal".
The group, who were created within the West Bank's Palestinian security system to take action against Israel, claimed credit for the incident on Abbas' convoy.
One of Abbas' bodyguards was reportedly shot dead during the attack.
