The current situation cannot continue with us having no power while the Israeli occupation does not pay a price” he added, Middle East Monitor (MEMO) quoted by Mi’raj Islamic News Agency (MINA) as reporting.

The chief negotiator pointed out that a supreme national committee, which includes political factions and national figures as well as representatives of civil society organisations and the PLO, is currently working “to prepare two files on the settlement and the latest Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip to be submitted to the International Criminal Court.”
