Dozens of Palestinians took to al-Khalil streets at noontime Sunday to call for releasing the bodies of their slain relatives withheld by the Israeli occupation authorities (IOA).
Speaking during the rally Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) leader Badran Jaber called for mobilizing popular and official campaigns to urge Israel to hand over the bodies of slain anti-occupation youths to their families.
Jaber appealed to the national and international human rights institutions to take immediate action and pressurize the Israeli occupation to return the bodies of slain protesters to their families so that they can bid them last farewell and bury them in Muslim cemeteries.
The rally-goers carried pictures of their slain children whose bodies have been seized by the IOA and raised the Palestinian flag. They further chanted slogans demanding the release of their children’s’ cadavers so that they can bury them at the soonest time possible.
