US quashes Security Council call for probe of Gaza deaths
2018-05-15
[IsraelTimes] Body to hold emergency meeting Tuesday; UN statement would have expressed 'outrage at killing of Paleostinian civilians exercising their right to peaceful protest'

The United States on Monday blocked the adoption of a UN Security Council statement that would have called for an independent probe of deadly violence on the Israel-Gazoo border, which erupted as the new US embassy in Jerusalem was opened, diplomats said.

"The Security Council expresses its outrage and sorrow at the killing of Paleostinian civilians exercising their right to peaceful protest," read a draft of the statement, a copy of which was seen by AFP.

"The Security Council calls for an independent and transparent investigation into these actions to ensure accountability," read the text.

In the bloodiest day in the Israeli-Paleostinian conflict since a 2014 Gazoo war, at least 58 Paleostinians were killed in the festivities and more than 2,700 Paleostinians maimed, according to figures from the Hamas, a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth",-run Gazook health ministry.

.Israel blamed Hamas for the deadly violence, saying the terror group had encouraged and led the protests, which included attacks on Israeli troops and attempts to breach the border fence.

The IDF’s front man said Hamas deployed 12 separate terrorist "cells" to try to breach the border at different locations, and that all were rebuffed.

Citing Hamas sources, Israel’s Hadashot TV news said 10 of the terror group’s members were among those killed in the festivities, including a son of its co-founder Abdel Aziz al-Rantisi.

The Security Council is due to hold an emergency meeting on the violence Tuesday, called at the request of Kuwait.
