Deputy Minister of International Relations and Cooperation, Luwellyn Landers said at a press briefing in Cape Town that the South African government has noted with regret the latest developments regarding the fate of the three Israeli teenagers who were previously kidnapped and the reactions from both Israel and Palestine.
“The South African Government calls upon all parties involved to exercise restraint, including a halt to the arbitrary arrest of Palestinian citizens and the use of collective punishment of Palestinians and the disturbance of their social and economic rights,” Landers said.
South Africa furthermore urges both the Israeli and Palestinian authorities to cooperate and find an amicable solution, he said.
On Monday, Israeli security forces discovered the bodies of the three Israeli teens, who went missing on June 12, near Hebron in the West Bank.
