UN special envoy: Killers ‘must be brought to justice’
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleRichard Serry, UN special envoy to the Middle East, says the killers “must be brought to justice.”
“Upon my return yesterday night to Jerusalem, I learned about the horrible fate of the three abducted Israeli students, whose murder was strongly condemned by the United Nations secretary-general,” he writes in a statement.
“The perpetrators must be brought to justice, as any association with or support for terror or violence must be rejected and will have consequences for those concerned.”
Serry adds that he remains “deeply troubled” by remarks made by Hamas officials commending the abduction.
“I call on all sides to avoid steps that can further exacerbate an already tense atmosphere,” he concludes.
