PA minister denounces Arab and world silence towards IOF massacres
Beit Hanun - Dr. Atef Odwan, the PA minister of refugees' affairs, on Wednesday condemned the Arab and world silence vis-à-vis the daily IOF troops' massacres in lines of the Palestinian people especially in the Gaza Strip.
Commenting on the IOF incursion into Beit Hanun at an early hour Wednesday that killed six Palestinians and wounded more than 50 others, Odwan, who lives in Beit Hanun, said that the town would not submit to the IOF troops.
The minister, one of whose bodyguards was killed in the raid, noted that the new massacre was the second in its kind after the bloodbath on the first day of Eidul Fitr feast last month.
The IOF troops and their government would not succeed in breaking the Palestinian people's resoluteness, Odwan affirmed.
The minister extended condolences, in the name of the PA government, to families of the victims and hoped speedy recovery for the wounded. He highly appreciated the Beit Hanun's residents' steadfastness in face of the "Zionist killers".
Meanwhile, the PA health ministry appealed to citizens to donate blood to save the lives of the wounded Beit Hanun residents who surpassed 50 casualties so far.
