Netanyahu: Jerusalem terror attack 'work of Abbas' partners'

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu lashed out at Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas on Wednesday evening, following a deadly terror attack in Jerusalem that saw a 3-month-old baby killed.

 

"This is how Abu Mazen (Abbas') partners in government work," Netanyau said, referring to the Palestinian unity government comprising Hamas and Fatah. "This is the same Abbas that only a few days ago called for harming Jews in Jerusalem."

 

Netanyahu – who called the Palestinian president by his Arabic nickname – referenced comments by Abbas about mounting religious tensions between Jews and Arabs at the flashpoint Temple Mount site.
