PA denounces execution of 3 Palestinian refugees in Iraq

Sunday 24-December-2006

GAZA (PIC)– The PA ministry of refugees’ affairs on Sunday denounced the kidnap and the execution of three Palestinian refugees in Iraq at the hands of armed sectarian militias.

The ministry in a statement said that one of the victims was identified as Yassin Al-Samra while the two others were not identified yet.

The crime against those innocent civilians fell in line with the series of murders against Palestinians in Iraq that are carried out on daily basis at the hands of sectarian militias aimed at forcing the Palestinian refugees to move from their places of residence the ministry charged.

It added that such merciless killing forced many of the Palestinian families to flee Baghdad to the borders of neighboring Arab countries whose authorities refused to allow them entry.

The ministry said that tens of those terrified refugees along with their children were trapped in the desert borders without any protection or assistance.

The ministry appealed to the UN and the Arab League secretaries to immediately act to solve the problem of Palestinian refugees in Iraq.
