Israel Police announced last Thursday that they had concluded an investigation into police conduct during the funeral procession of Al Jazeera correspondent Shireen Abu Akleh in Jerusalem last month. But instead of releasing the findings of their probe, the police issued only a statement, quoting Insp.-Gen. Kobi Shabtai as saying that Abu Akleh’s funeral had been a “complex event.”
This is simply not good enough.
As the world closely monitors Israel’s investigations into the circumstances of both Abu Akleh’s killing and the violence at her funeral, Israel needs to publish its findings – and the sooner the better.
