The special coordinator of the UN for the peace process in the Middle East, Tor Wennesland, has called for “maximum containment” to avoid a violent escalation coinciding with the celebration this Sunday of Jerusalem Day with flag marches called by Israeli activists.
Thus, he has asked “all parties to exercise maximum restraint and make wise decisions to avoid another violent conflict that would only cost more lives.”
“The message from the international community is clear: avoid this escalation,” Wennesland said in a statement after the death on Friday. of a 14-year-old Palestinian teenager shot by Israeli soldiers near Bethlehem.
“I have maintained contacts with all the affected parties and I have asked their leaders to heed this call,” he added.
