Muslim Organization Slams Settlers’ Attack on Palestinian Village
One young Palestinian was killed and another critically injured by “armed colonists” who attacked the western part of the village, setting several vehicles and homes ablaze, according to earlier reports.
In a statement issued by MWL Secretariat General late Saturday, the league criticized the serious ongoing violations committed by settlers, protected by the occupation forces, against the Palestinian people and their properties, Arab News reported on Sunday.
MWL reiterated its urgent appeal to the international community to adopt a genuine and decisive stance to end the humanitarian crisis and called for concrete measures to halt the aggression and hold accountable all responsible parties.
