Awwad was here to attend the handover ceremony of the hospital built by the humanitarian organization MERC to the Palestinian people. Also present in the ceremony were Vice President Jusuf Kalla and Minister of Foreign Affairs Retno Marsudi.

According to him, the analysis is in accordance with what was ever uttered by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas. ” The analysis reminds me of the words of President Abbas in a meeting. The President said that Israel is the
source of all the chaos,” he said.

Israel’s actions have triggered the emergence of terrorist group ISIS. Israeli actions to besiege the Palestinian territories have also led to the birth of various terrorist groups in various parts of the world. If Israel does not commit the heinous act, there will be no terrorist groups and networks in regions throughout the world, ” he added.
