Mahmud Abbas the president of Palestine has accused Israel
of committing “genocide” in Gaza during its military campaign which has so far
killed 43 Palestinians.
“It is genocide. Killing of entire
families is genocide by Israel against our Palestinian people,” he said a
crisis meeting of the Palestinian leadership in the West Bank city of Ramallah.
“What’s happening now is a war against
the whole Palestinian and not against the “militant” factions.
“We realize that Israel is not shielding
itself, it is defending settlements, it is the primary undertaking.” Abbas said.
“We are moving in a few approaches to
stop the Israeli animosity and spilling of Palestinian blood, including talking
to Abdel Fattah al-Sisi the Egyptian president and UN Secretary General Ban
Ki-moon.”
