The Palestinian presidency said Saturday the US House of Representatives' approval of billions of dollars in new military aid to Israel marked "an aggression against the Palestinian people".
The money would "translate into thousands of Palestinian casualties in the Gaza Strip" and the West Bank, said Nabil Abu Rudeina, spokesman for Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas, calling it a "dangerous escalation".
