He noted that children and youths composing 70 per cent of the population in the West Bank while the entire region is deprived of running water, electricity and medication.
 
He said,” 80 per cent of the people are below the poverty line while 50 per cent are suffering from unemployment and Palestinians do not have the right to travel abroad.”
