Khatib: Yishai's threats to strip Palestinians of their citizenship are racist

OCCUPIED JERUSALEM, (PIC)-- Sheikh Kamal Al-Khatib, the deputy head of the Islamic Movement in 1948 lands, stated that the threats of new interior minister Eli Yishai to strip the Palestinians of 1948 occupied lands of their citizenship if one of them carried out a human bombing operation reflect the racism and Nazism of the new far-right Israeli government and its schemes to deport the Palestinian natives.

In a press statement to the PIC, Sheikh Khatib said that these statements were made following the murder of a 16-year-old girl in Beersheba, highlighting that Yishai's threats would never terrorize the Palestinian citizens, who are the indigenous people of Palestine and their forefathers cultivated and built the Palestinian land.

In another context, large masses of citizens attended the funeral of Basma Al-Nabari, the Palestinian girl who was killed by IOF troops at the junction of Shoket in Negev.

The Israeli central court in Beersheba extended the detention of Basma's parents and her uncle for four more days.

The IOF troops kidnapped at dawn Monday seven Palestinian citizens from the cities of Jenin, Bethlehem and Al-Khalil in the West Bank. They also raided last night the same cities and kidnapped a number of citizens.
