Palestinian Foreign Ministry warns against Israel using its aggression against Gaza to implement its expansionist plans in West Bank
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates called on the international community, especially the Security Council, to pay attention to the racist, expansionist colonial plan implemented by Israel to swallow up the lands of the West Bank behind its continuing aggression on the Gaza Strip, and to take the necessary decisions in the UN Security Council to stop it immediately, and to stop the implementation of this plan prepared in advance, And stopping the implementation of this pre-prepared plan, which makes it difficult to talk about peace and the principle of the two-state solution with its implementation.
In a statement issued today, Monday, the Ministry warned of the consequences and repercussions of implementing this plan on the explosive conflict arena, as well as on the security and stability of the region and the world.
It condemned the destructive war, crimes of genocide, ethnic cleansing, and forced displacement committed by the Israeli war machine for the 17th day in a row against our defenseless people in the Gaza Strip, especially the brutal bombing that the Gaza Strip was subjected to during the past 24 hours, which targeted many areas, leading to the death of 400. A Palestinian citizen, dozens injured, and more destruction to homes and infrastructure.
It also strongly condemned the violations and crimes of the occupation forces, settler gangs, and their armed terrorist elements against Palestinian citizens, their land, property, homes, crops, and sanctities in the occupied West Bank, the latest of which was the ongoing bloody incursions, which are now accompanied by deliberate shooting at Palestinian citizens with the aim of killing. This also happened in many areas of the West Bank, bringing the number of martyrs during this devastating war to 95 so far.
The Ministry believes that Netanyahu’s promotion of prolonging the war on the Gaza Strip has become clear that he aims to attack, liquidate and displace more than two million Palestinians living in the Gaza Strip, and destroy their homes and the foundations of their existence, turning the Gaza Strip into an uninhabitable environment, in a hideous Israeli exploitation of the cover that the occupation took from some powerful countries under the slogan of “self-defense”, so that Netanyahu sets long-term strategic goals for this slogan that lead to the destruction of the Gaza Strip, killing the largest possible number of its residents and displacing those who remain, or turning it into a displaced person with no shelter except tents.
the Ministry noted that at the same time, the occupation forces and settlers are abusing the occupied West Bank and abusing the citizens, imposing a stifling siege on them that paralyzes their lives, and deepening the gradual annexation of the occupied Palestinian territory, in an attempt to resolve the future of the Gaza Strip through a destructive and comprehensive war, and also to resolve the future of the West Bank through Swallowing and annexing the larger area, all under the pretext of (self-defense).
