RAMALLAH: Rawhi Fattouh, the Speaker of the Palestinian National Council, said the discovery of the bodies of over 80 Palestinians killed in Israeli attacks in the Gaza Strip and Gaza hospital's refusal to recieve them because of the lack of information regarding their identities and the locations from which they were recovered, is evidence of Israel's brutal crimes. He stressed that the hospitals' refusal to receive the bodies of 80 slain Gazans from the Israeli side due to the lack of sufficient information is clear evidence of the brutal crimes committed against the Palestinian people in Gaza. In a statement issued by the National Council on Wednesday, Fattouh stressed that the Israeli government is intensifying its killings and executions of Palestinians, all the while the international community remains silent. Fattouh urged the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court to take immediate action regarding the severity of these crimes, highlighting that hundreds of citizens in Gaza have been abduct ed and executed, either through physical and psychological torture or by gunfire.
