PM berates Abbas for not condemning shooting

Netanyahu condemns PA President Mahmoud Abbas for failing to denounce a shooting attack earlier Sunday by a member of his security forces.

“The Palestinian terrorist who shot three IDF soldiers today near Beit El was a member of the Palestinian Authority’s security forces. Mahmoud Abbas has not condemned this attack that was carried out by one of his men. I demand that the international community stop its hypocrisy and do everything in its power to pressure the Palestinian Authority to stop its incitement against Israel,” Netanyahu says.
