The UN Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process has called for an investigation into the Israeli occupation forces’ “execution” of a Palestinian man inside his East Jerusalem home in front of his family.
Tor Wennesland called for an “immediate, independent, and thorough investigation” into the killing of Mohammed Al-Shaham, 21, during a 3am Israeli raid at his home on Monday.
“Deeply disturbed by the killing of a Palestinian man, Mohammad Al-Shaham, by Israeli Security Forces at his home in Kufur Aqab in disputed circumstances,” tweeted Wennesland yesterday. “My deepest condolences to his family. This requires an immediate, independent and thorough investigation.”
