No: 125, 11 April 2022, Press Release Regarding the Killing of a Palestinian Civilian by the Israeli Security Forces in Bethlehem

Republic Of Türkiye Ministry Of Foreign Affairs 11.04.2022

We strongly condemn that a civilian Palestinian woman, Ghada Sabateen, although she posed no threat to them, was shot to death without any warning by the Israeli security forces, in the town of Husan in Bethlehem, in the West Bank.

We call on the Israeli authorities to investigate the incident impartially and thoroughly, bring those responsible to justice as soon as possible and take the necessary measures to prevent the recurrence of such inhumane actions.

We wish Allah's mercy to the deceased and extend our condolences to her family and relatives.

Atatürk
