The spokeswoman of the Ministry for Foreign Affairs of France, Anne-Claire Legendre, said that her country follows with deep concern the constant violations in the West Bank, especially in Beit Huwarra town in Nablus. She went on to say that the violation against unarmed Palestinians is intolerable.
As a part of its responsibility, France called on Isreal to protect unarmed Palestinians and to prosecute the perpetrators of violent acts in Beit Huwarra.
