PA official: We hold Israel responsible for Gaza violence
A top aide to Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas says the PA holds Israel responsible for the rapidly escalating violence in and around the Gaza Strip.
“We hold Israel, the occupying power, fully responsible for the deterioration of the situation in Gaza,” Saeb Erekat tweets.
“We reiterate our demand for international protection. We call upon the Int. Community to do everything needed in order to prevent a new massacre in Gaza, Palestine,” he continues.
Erekat adds that “the Israeli government should be aware that all attacks against the Palestinian people, will be reported to the International Criminal Court.”
