Fatah Central Committee member Abbas Zaki claimed on Wednesday night that a new agreement between Israel and the Palestinian Authority was slated to be signed on Sunday "but Israel betrayed us and carried out its activities in Nablus".
"The Netanyahu government is imposing the most serious sanctions against the Palestinian people, the latest of which was the massacre in Nablus today and this caused us to sever all ties with Israel, stop security coordination and immediately turn to the International Court of Justice," he said.
