PA: We ‘repeatedly rejected’ attacks on civilians
The office of Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas rejects the deadly terror attack in Tel Aviv on Wednesday.
The statement reads: “The presidency has repeatedly rejected all operations against civilians from any party, no matter what the justification.”
“The realization of a just peace, and creating a positive climate, that is what will lead to the lowering of tension and violence in the region,” the statement continues.
The presidency stressed that “to achieve a just peace, everyone must refrain from acts that will increase tension and resorting to violence.”
