US Ambassador to the UN Linda Thomas-Greenfield on Monday condemned the Islamic Jihad terrorist organization. Speaking at a UN Security Council briefing on the situation in the Middle East, Thomas-Greenfield welcomed the ceasefire in Gaza that was reached on Sunday.
“We are deeply saddened by reports of civilian casualties and need to swiftly and thoroughly investigate each of them. We should refrain from jumping to conclusions until we can determine the facts. As just one example, Israel was originally blamed for an attack that inflicted civilian casualties in Jabaliya refugee camp. It now appears to have been caused by a Palestinian Islamic Jihad rocket. So let us be sure to follow the facts and see where they lead us,” she added.
