Palestine condemns violations by the Israeli Army and settlers

Ramallah, Jan 17 (Prensa Latina) The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates condemned the systematic violations and attacks by the Israeli army and the escalation of the actions taken by Jewish settlers against the population of the occupied territories.

The Foreign Ministry issued a statement condemning the expansionist plans of the new Tel Aviv government, headed by Benjamin Netanyahu, considered the most right-wing in the history of Israel.It also criticized the global double standard by warning that it ‘damages the credibility of the international system and the UN Security Council’.

The ministry questioned plans to legalize 65 outposts built by settlers in the West Bank, occupied since 1967. Most of the outposts, seeds of future settlements, are erected by far-right sectors and groups without the consent of the Government, which has caused clashes in the past.

The UN and the world consider as illegal, all Israeli settlements in the West Bank and East Jerusalem.

According to various sources, over 450,000 Israeli settlers live in 132 settlements and 147 outposts in the West Bank and another 200,000 in East Jerusalem.
