RAMALLAH, May 23, 2017 (WAFA) – The Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) Tuesday condemned the terror attack in the United Kingdom that left 22 people dead, including children, and at least 60 injured.

"On behalf of the Palestinian leadership, we strongly denounce last night‘s terrorist attack in Manchester,” said PLO Executive Committee member Hanan Ashrawi during a telephone conversation with British Consul General in Jerusalem Alastair McPhail.

“We, the people of Palestine, stand in solidarity with the British people and convey our deepest condolences and sympathies to the victims and their families and loved ones who have been affected by such a tragic and senseless event," she said.

"We also affirm our firm commitment to nonviolence and are against all kinds of terrorism and the targeting of innocent civilians."
