"At a time when world leaders met to commemorate (former Israeli premier) Shimon Peres and the way he advocated for peace, the Israeli government has created a new obstacle to a two-state solution," a Peace Now spokeswoman said.
Peres, 93, died on Wednesday and was buried yesterday at a Jerusalem ceremony attended by many world leaders including President Barack Obama of the United States, which has tried to broker new Israeli-Palestinian peace talks.
