The Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs has said in a statement that effective international action is required to stop “the crimes of genocide and annexation in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, including Jerusalem”, Al Jazeera reports.
It said that it holds the Israeli government fully responsible for giving free rein to settler militias in the occupied Palestinian territory, through their campaigns to illegally seize more Palestinian land and build more settlements.
“The ministry warns against the continued overreach of the occupation government and its settler militias in violating the West Bank and carrying out massive colonial settlement projects and large-scale demolitions of citizens’ homes, especially in camps in the northern West Bank.”
