Prime Minister Mohammad Shtayyeh tonight condemned what he described as the horrific massacre committed by the Israeli occupation forces in Jenin camp this evening, which claimed the lives of six Palestinians and a number of injuries, in addition to the targeting of homes and the destruction of property, and said that the Palestinians will continue in their struggle until they gain their freedom and independence.

Shtayyeh called on the US administration to intervene to stop the massacres in the Palestinian cities, towns, villages and refugee camps, in which dozens of people are killed.

He also called on international human rights organizations to condemn this crime, to hold the occupation authorities fully responsible for it and for all crimes committed, and not to allow the perpetrators to escape punishment.

Shtayyeh affirmed the right of the Palestinian people to continue their struggle to end the occupation, obtain their freedom, and establish their independent state with Jerusalem as its capital.
