Palestine's UN ambassador says West Bank offensive about 'land' not 'security'

Palestine's ambassador to the UN, Riyad Mansour, slammed Israel's  wide scale offensive on the northern occupied West Bank.

“Israel wants you to believe its military aggression is about security, but it knows by experience that it is actually creating the conditions of insecurity. No one is naive enough to ignore what this is about. It is about the land,” he said.

“Israel is advancing its settler colonial agenda with more and more settlers”.
