05/May/2021 08:50 PM Palestine’s UN Observer: International community must reject Israel’s attempts to taint legitimate criticism of its crimes NEW YORK, Wednesday, May 05, 2021 (WAFA) - Palestine's Permanent Observer to the United Nations, Riyad Mansour, stressed the need for the international community to reject Israel’s attempts to taint legitimate criticism of its crimes by delegitimizing human rights groups and even delegitimizing the real accounts of human suffering on the ground. Mansour sent today three identical letters to the UN Secretary-General, President of the UN Security Council (China), and President of the UN General Assembly, briefing them on the critical situation in the occupied Palestinian Territory, including East Jerusalem. “The situation in Occupied Palestine continues to worsen as Israel intensifies its human rights violations and war crimes against the Palestinian people,” said Mansour.
