Palestinians staged a mass march in Jabalia Camp in the northern Gaza Strip after Friday prayers in protest at the heinous crime of burning alive an infant and wounding his family in the West Bank city of Nablus.

Called for by the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) movement, the march, in which leaders of the different Palestinian factions took part, also aimed at supporting Al Aqsa Mosque.

The PIJ said a Palestinian response to this terrorist act will not be late, stressing that the Palestinian resistance will not surrender to the Israeli terrorism.

PIJ spokesman Dawood Shehab said Israel filthily targets Palestinians in Gaza, Hebron, Al Quds and now in Nablus.

On Friday morning, extremist Israeli settlers torched two houses in Duma village near Nablus, killing 18-month-old baby Ali Dawabsheh and severely wounding his family.

According to medics in Nablus’ Rafidia hospital, the infant’s mother, father and 4-year-old sibling suffered third degree burns on up to 75% of their bodies.
