Kuwait's PM expels Israel delegation from Inter-Parliamentary Union

CAIRO – 18 October 2017: Marzouq al-Ghanim, Kuwait's parliament speaker, expelled the Israeli delegation from the meeting of the Inter-Parliamentary Union currently held in Russia's Saint Petersburg.

During his speech in the last session, Ghanim shouted at the Israeli delegation calling them “occupiers and child killers” as a reply to their claims concerning the Palestinian prisoners detained in Israeli prisons.

He addressed the head of the Israeli delegation: "You occupier, you must carry your bags and get out of the hall after seeing the reactions of the parliaments of the world. Get out of the hall if you have an atom of dignity.”
