AMMAN — Jordanians have always supported Palestinians and conveyed their concerns at international events, in addition to supporting efforts to establish an independent Palestinian state, Lower House Speaker Atef Tarawneh said Saturday.
In a speech delivered at a ceremony to commemorate the “Dawaymeh massacre”, he said the House has worked in regional and international arenas through parliamentary unions and assemblies to expose the “frequent Israeli assaults on Palestinians”, the Jordan News Agency, Petra, reported.
Mohammad Manasrah, president of the Dawaymeh tribal council, said Dawaymeh is a village in Hebron and was the last village to be occupied on October 29, 1948. More than 500 people in the village were killed in the massacre by Israeli forces, Petra added.
