Official calls on international community to provide protection for Palestinians

Minister Hussein al-Sheikh, Chairman of the Palestinian Authority’s Civil Affairs Commission and Member of the Central Committee of Fatah Movement, has urged the international community to provide badly needed protection to the Palestinian people in light of a new wave of attacks by Israeli settlers.

The leading Fatah and government official took it to his official Twitter page to demand protection for the Palestinians, as he commended “our people’s heroic response to this terrorism.”

“We demand the international community to provide immediate protection for the Palestinian people, who are being killed and are having their homes and lands burned by organized racist gangs.”

Al-Sheikh said his call for international protection came “in the face of the settlers’ attacks and their organized terrorism under the protection of the occupation army against our people in Palestinian cities, villages and camps.”
