| The Palestinian Authority accused the Israelis of âplaying with fireâ and trying to destroy the peace process on Sunday after an army operation in central Gaza left at least 14 people dead. âWe condemn this new massacre and warn the Israeli government against playing with fire,â Palestinian leader Yasser Arafatâs chief aide, Nabil Abu Rudeina, told AFP. The Palestinians would seek an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council in the wake of the operation âand ask the council to impose sanctions against the Israeli governmentâ, he added. âThis Israeli escalation is not only aimed at destroying the peace process but imposing a solution on the Palestinian people. Such measures will not achieve results as no solution can be imposed on the Palestinian people.â |
