President Mahmoud Abbas called on US President Joe Biden to intervene immediately to stop the humanitarian catastrophe and genocide against our people, which has so far claimed the lives of more than 42,000 Palestinians, the majority of whom are children and women.

In a televised speech, broadcast on Palestine TV this Saturday evening, the President addressed US President Joe Biden, who alone bears a special responsibility, due to his international standing and great influence on the occupation authorities, to intervene immediately to stop the aggression and provide relief to our besieged people in the Gaza Strip in addition to stop the attacks of the Israeli occupation forces and the continuing terrorism of settlers against our people in the West Bank and Jerusalem, which threaten an imminent explosion.

President Abbas stressed that our Palestinian people deserve to live on their homeland in freedom and dignity and will remain steadfast on their land until they achieve their legitimate rights to independence and a state with Jerusalem as its capital.
