Fischer said that 17 persons registered their names to deliver speeches during the session which will end by voting on a resolution.

Worthy mentioning that the UN General Assembly had asked the UN secretary general Kofi Annan on May 7 for a report on the incidents which took place during the Israeli invasion of Jenin camp in the West Bank.

The report which was published on Thursday concluded a formula that avoided accusing Israel of committing a crime in the Jenin camp, and it did not anger the Palestinian authority. It did not say Israel did not commit a crime, and it stressed the Israeli forces delayed helping the wounded and the humanitarian relief operations.
