ABC News/AP – Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas on Wednesday defended his security cooperation with Israel against widespread criticism and said his forces are helping in the search for three Israeli teens missing in the West Bank.
Security coordination with Israel serves Palestinian interests because it helps prevent a new uprising, which would “destroy us,” Abbas said.
