Russia's FM condemns attack on Palestine village

Moscow has vehemently condemned a terror attack on a Palestine village on the West Bank, when a child was burned alive and his parents and brother sustained severe burns, Russia's Foreign Ministry said on Friday.

"In early hours of Friday, July 31, Israeli radicals out of Jewish settlers in the occupied territories hurled ‘Molotov cocktails’ at two households in the Palestine village of Duma near Nablus in the West Bank," diplomats say. "The Dawabsha family suffered injuries in the attack — an 18-month-old boy burned alive and his parents and a brother sustained serious burns."

The foreign ministry said that "Moscow categorically condemns this heinous crime."

"We proceed from the fact that Israel will undertake all necessary steps to find and punish those guilty for this crime," it said.

Besides, Russia’s Foreign Ministry expressed its deepest condolences to the family of the killed child and wished the injured speedy recoveries.
