RAMALLAH, Prime Minister Mohammad Shtayyeh condemned the Israeli army killing earlier today of three Palestinians near the northern West Bank city of Jenin.
He described it as “extrajudicial murder” and a “horrific crime”, demanding that the perpetrators of this crime and other similar earlier ones be held accountable before the International Criminal Court.
The Prime Minister called on Israel’s leaders “to stop committing crimes and violations against our Palestinian people, respond to their legitimate rights to freedom and independence, end the occupation and establish their independent state with Jerusalem as its capital.”
He also demanded that Israel returns the corpses of the three men – Khalil Tawalbeh, from Jenin, Saeb Abahreh, from al-Yamoun town, near Jenin, and Saif Abu Libdeh, from Tulkarm – to their families for proper burial.
