The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriate affirmed that only in this way the world could “save what is left of the credibility of international institutions and international law.”

The Ministry warned that global norms are undergoing a serious and unprecedented erosion due to systematic Israeli violations in both the Gaza Strip and the West Bank.

The Foreign Ministry strongly criticized the war campaign in the West Bank, especially in the northern cities of Jenin and Tulkarem, and in the neighboring refugee camps.

The diplomatic institution highlighted the demolition of entire blocks of buildings in those cities and camps, which forced more than 40,000 Palestinians to flee. While the government of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is depriving our people in Gaza of their most basic humanitarian needs, it is approving to building of nearly 1,000 new homes for Israeli settlers in the occupied East Jerusalem, it warned.
