US Senator Sanders: “Israeli attack on Abu Akleh’s funeral is outrageous”

WASHINGTON, US Senator Bernie Sanders has strongly condemned the Israeli police attack yesterday on the funeral of journalist Shireen Abu Akleh, who was shot dead by Israeli occupation forces in Jenin earlier this week.

“The attack by Israeli forces against mourners at the funeral of Palestinian journalist Shireen Abu Akleh is an outrage,” said Sanders in a tweet.

“The United States must condemn this, and demand an independent investigation into her killing.”
