Report: Polish-Palestinians file complaint against Israeli minister in Poland for Auschwitz liberation event
[IsraelTimes] Several Palestinians with Polish citizenship have filed a complaint with Polish authorities calling for the arrest of Israeli Education Minister Yoav Kisch, who arrived in Poland over the weekend to attend a ceremony tomorrow marking the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, the Kan public broadcaster reports.
The complainants assert that Kisch, who served as an IDF fighter pilot during his mandatory IDF service and until his retirement from the reserves in 2016, is responsible for alleged war crimes in the Gaza Strip, including the deaths of some of the complainants’ family members.
Kisch responds to the report, saying: “I am in Poland to represent the State of Israel at the ceremony marking 80 years since the liberation of Auschwitz. Here, I will emphasize to world leaders our commitment to memory and the lessons of history.”
“The Palestinian attempts to spread lies and distort reality will not deter me from presenting the truth: the State of Israel will continue to defend its citizens against murderous terror and steadfastly fight for its right to security,” he adds.
