Palestinian PM describes Israeli officials’ calls to wipe out the Palestinian town of Hawarra as terrorist and racist
Palestinian Prime Minister Mohammad Shtayyeh has described the call of Bezalel Smotrich, a minister in the Israeli Occupation government, to wipe out the Palestinian town of Hawara, south of Nablus, as terrorist and racist, saying that these calls carry a dangerous threat of aggression against the Palestinians in the occupied lands.
According to Wafa Agency, Shtayyeh said in a statement: This call alone is enough to present Smotrich to international justice, as it constitutes official incitement to commit new massacres against the Palestinians in Hawara town and the neighboring villages, which are still living under the horror of the massacre committed by the occupation forces and the settlers last Monday in Aqabat Jaber Camp in Ariha (Jericho).
Shtayyeh added that these statements reveal what the Israeli officials’ terrorist intentions towards which world must act responsibly.
Shtayyeh called for international condemnation of such calls and for action to put an end to the Israeli crimes, end the occupation and establish a Palestinian state in accordance with the resolution’s international legitimacy.
