Netanyahu talks to Abbas by phone, calls to jointly fight terrorism

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu speaks to Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas by telephone.

The prime minister tells Abbas that “everyone in Israel” is shocked by the despicable act of terror against the Dawabsha family, whose 18-month-old baby was killed in the fire that consumed their home.

“We must fight terrorism together, no matter from which side it comes,” Netanyahu tells Abbas, according to a statement by his office.

The prime minister also tells the PA president that he has instructed security forces to go to every length to locate and arrest the perpetrators.
