The Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates (MOFAE) condemned the Israeli occupation police’s running over of Jerusalemite child, Jawad Abbasi, 15, in the town of Silwan, south of the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem, under the pretext of raising the Palestinian flag on his bicycle. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs considered that the trampling of the child Abbasi is an attempted murder and a heinous crime that rises to the level of a crime against humanity. The Palestinian MOFAE called on the International Criminal Court (ICC) and international organizations working to protect the rights of the child to shoulder their legal and moral responsibilities towards these ongoing crimes, and urged them to hold accountable the Israeli war criminals who commit these crimes and those standing behind them at the political and military level.
