Hold Israeli police accountable for brutally attacking a UK citizen unjustly

Rejected 18 signatures

What the petition asks

On 26th June, 2016 during the last 10 days of Ramadhan, Israeli Police stormed the Al Aqsa Mosque, and brutally attacked a UK citizen. He was not involved in any provocation. We, the undersigned, request the UK government to protect the human rights of UK citizens abroad.
The Al Aqsa Mosque is the third holiest site in the world in Islam. The last 10 days of Ramadhan is a particularly auspicious occasion for Muslims across the world. No pilgrim, let alone a UK citizen, deserves to be attacked and dealt with such force, as seen below:
