Senior US administration officials protested to Israel today (Friday) about the conduct of the police at the funeral of journalist Sheerin Abu Aqla - as was told to Walla! by both Israeli and American sources. 

An American source said the administration is very angry about the incident. U.S. Ambassador to the UN Linda Result Greenfield wrote in a Twitter tweet that she was "very disturbed by the funeral events and that the tragedy of Abu Aqla's death should have been treated with sensitivity and respect."

NEWSRAEL: It should be noted that with all this government has done to placate the Biden Administration, these statements are very harsh, and from an Israeli standpoint - completely out of line with the facts on the ground. This does not bode well, less than a month before the Biden visit.
