Arab parliament decries Israeli aggression on Jenin

The Arab Parliament on Monday emphatically condemned the Israeli occupation aggression on the Palestinian Jenin refugee camp, which left several young Palestinians dead or injured, and led to wide-scale arrests.

The parliament said, in a press release, that the Israeli occupation action is considered to be a “war crime committed against a disarmed people”, calling on the international community and the United Nations (UN) to immediately provide international protection for the Palestinian people.

“What the Israeli occupation forces are doing (at Jenin refugee camp) is a systematic and considered aggression aiming at intimidating and terrifying the Palestinian people in a bid to muzzle the voice of the right and impose the fait accompli by military force,” it added.

The parliament underlined that some Arab, regional and international action should be taken in order to halt this aggression and bring the Israeli military and its commanders to accountability for their crimes against the disarmed Palestinian people.
