The United Nations Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process, Tor Wennesland, warned Wednesday against pouring more fuel on the fire in the ongoing conflict between the Palestinians and Israelis.
“As a new year begins, a dangerous cycle of violence persists on the ground, amidst increased political tension and a stalled peace process,” Wennesland said in his briefing to the Security Council on the “Situation in the Middle East” including the Palestinian cause.
