Prime Minister Muhammad Shtayyeh said: “Our priority now is to stop the occupation’s aggression against our people in the Gaza Strip, ensure the delivery of medical, health and food supplies, restore the delivery of electricity and water, and operate water treatment plants and desalination plants, to confront the humanitarian and health catastrophe facing the Strip.”

This came during his meeting with the Norwegian envoy to the Middle East peace process, Hilda Haraldstad, today, Tuesday, in his office in Ramallah, in the presence of Norway’s representative to Palestine, Torne Veste.

The Prime Minister renewed his call to pressure Israel to stop its aggression and adhere to international humanitarian law, and the necessity of creating a political horizon and path based on international legitimacy and the Arab Peace Initiative to end the occupation and establish the Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital.

Shtayyeh expressed his rejection of all attempts by the occupation to displace our people from the north of the Gaza Strip towards the south, and also the attempt to displace them from the Gaza Strip abroad, as a new nakba that our people are experiencing.
