Meanwhile at the United Nations, Deputy Secretary-General Jan Eliasson said the current unrest would not be happening if Palestinians had their freedom.
U.N. Deputy Secretary-General Jan Eliasson: “This crisis would not have erupted, I suggest, if the Palestinian people had a perspective of hope towards a viable Palestinian state, if they had an economy that provides jobs and opportunities, if they had more control over their security and the legal and administrative processes that define their daily existence—in short, if the Palestinians did not still live under a stifling and humiliating occupation that has lasted almost half a century.”
A funeral was held in the occupied West Bank Thursday for veteran Palestinian activist Hashem Azzeh. A medical doctor and olive grower, Azzeh died from inhaling tear gas fired by Israeli troops during a protest in Hebron. He was well known in activist circles for years of organizing against the Israeli occupation and harassment by Jewish settlers.
