Following the attack, Palestinian National Council Chairman, Rawhi Fattouh, accused the government of Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, of committing State terrorism and demanded international protection for his people.

The occupation authorities systematically violate international humanitarian law and decisions by global courts, he stressed.

According to Fattouh, several massacres and a high death toll are evidence of Israel’s ethnic cleansing.

The Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates condemned in a statement “the brutal massacre committed by the occupation in Nuseirat refugee camp.”
