Unions act after Palestinian driver killed

22 Maio 2006

The ITF has demanded an investigation from the Israeli government and military following the fatal shooting of a member of the ITF-affiliated General Union of Transportation Workers in Palestine. The ITF has also received the assistance of the General Federation of Labour in Israel, Histadrut, which has sent an official letter to Defence Minister Amir Peretz, asking for an explanation of this killing.

Mr. Zakaryia Hussian Abu Muhsen Daraghmah, a driver from the town of Tubas, was killed by IDF soldiers while trying to earn his living on the afternoon of Thursday, May 4th. The General Union of Transportation Workers in Palestine contacted the ITF, asking for support.

In a letter to the Israeli army, ITF General Secretary requested an official investigation. The shooting was an "extremely serious matter, " he stressed.

"The ITF supports its affiliated unions' efforts to protect its members' rights to carry out their work without fear for their lives. As transport sector workers, this must include the ability to move in safety between Palestine's towns and cities," Cockroft insisted.
