26/09/2017 (Agence Europe) – On Tuesday 26 September, the spokesperson for the European External Action Service condemned the attack carried out by a Palestinian worker on four Israelis at the entrance of the West Bank settlement of Har Adar. Three of them, one police officer and two security guards, were shot dead and a third security guard was seriously injured. Hamas has praised the attack, describing it as an act of retribution for the crimes of the occupier against the Palestinian people and Israeli violations. In a press release, the spokesperson stated that “there can be no justification for such a crime, and attempts by Hamas to glorify the attack are reprehensible. Violence and terror will only achieve more loss and pain and must stop”. (CG)
