.- The Middle East Quartet strongly condemned the "wanton" killing of five Israelis in the Jewish settlement of Itamar, near Nablus in the northern occupied Palestinian West Bank territory. In a statement issued today in New York, the Quartet, consisting of U.S., EU, UN and Russia, "condemns in the strongest possible terms today's violent murder of five members of an Israeli family, including three children, in the West Bank "offered his condolences to the loved ones of the victims and the Israelis, and added that" attacks against civilians are unacceptable under any circumstances.
"" The Quartet urged that those responsible are brought to justice and values \u200b\u200bthe strong condemnation of this attempt by the president (of the Palestinian National Authority Mahmoud) Abbas and the Palestinian leadership, "he said. U.S., EU, UN and Russia stressed also the need to accelerate efforts to achieve a comprehensive peace agreement between Israelis and Palestinians and the Arab countries and Israel.
The five Israelis were of the same family: two parents and three of his sons (one of eleven years, another three and an infant) who were stabbed as they slept in their house in the settlement of Itamar. The attack was the deadliest against Israel since March 2008 when a Palestinian entered a Jewish religious school in Jerusalem and killed eight students with an automatic weapon.
Itamar, home to a thousand religious nationalist Jewish settlers, was the scene of a similar attack in 2002, in which a Palestinian shot dead in her home to mother and three children, and a security guard.
