Palestinian representative pleads for end of conflict in Gaza, West Bank
The permanent observer of the Palestinian State to the United Nations, Riyad H. Mansour, accused Israel of setting the stage to expand the Gaza war to the West Bank on Monday during his appearance before the United Nations Security Council.
"We do not need to see the repetition of what happened against our people in the Gaza Strip to be in the West Bank," said Mansour.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu faces pressure to annex the West Bank from far-right politicians in his government who want to extend sovereignty over the area and snuff out hopes for a Palestinian state.
