Palestinians slam Israel for laborer deaths

The Palestinian Authority labor minister says he holds Israeli authorities responsible for a spate of fatal incidents involving Palestinian construction workers in the country.

Mamoun Abu Shahla says his ministry is following developments on the garage collapse in Tel Aviv with “great interest and worry.”

Shahla accuses Israeli authorities of subjecting Palestinian laborers to “unsuitable” work conditions.
