Ramallah - "Jerusalem" dot com - The official spokesman for the presidency , Nabil Abu Rudeineh , said today, Tuesday, "We will not allow Israel to escape punishment for its ongoing crimes against the Palestinian people and their Islamic and Christian sanctities, and we are committed to international law."

This came in response to Yair Lapid , who said: "He will not allow the soldiers of the occupation army to be investigated by the International Criminal Court."

He added, "The State of Palestine is a member of the International Criminal Court, and any Palestinian citizen has the right to go there to try the occupation for its crimes that violate international law."

Abu Rudeineh stressed that Israel must abide by international law, end its occupation of the Palestinian territories, and stop its aggression against our people, otherwise it will face the penalties imposed by international law for continuing its occupation and continuing its crimes against our people.

He said that if the world wants to achieve security and stability in the region, it must hold Israel accountable for its occupation and its ongoing crimes, and not to consider itself as a state above the law.
