The envoy, Ibrahim Khreisheh, indicated in the interview on Palestinian Authority TV that such a sentiment might be politically unpopular, noting that he is “not a candidate in any Palestinian elections, so I don’t need to win popularity among the Palestinians.” Khreisheh went on to say that the Israeli army warned Palestinians living in Gaza to evacuate before a bombardment.
The interview was translated by MEMRI – the Middle East Media Research Institute.
