Occupied Jerusalem - SANA
The Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs has renewed its condemnation of the continuous crimes of the Israeli occupation against the Palestinian people, especially the direct fire operations against Palestinians, as happened today in Bab Hatta in occupied Jerusalem.
In a statement published today by the Palestinian Wafa Agency, the ministry confirmed that the indiscriminate shooting of the Palestinian people is clear evidence of the racism of the Israeli occupation, as happened today with Iyad Al Hallaq, a young man with special needs in occupied Jerusalem.
The Ministry called on international bodies and human rights and humanitarian organizations to document these crimes and submit them to the International Criminal Court to hold Israeli war criminals accountable, expressing its astonishment at the silence of the international community towards these crimes.
The ministry called on the international community to stop the policy of double standards in dealing with peoples' issues and duplication in the application of international law and international legitimacy and its decisions.
A Palestinian youth was shot dead by the Israeli occupation forces earlier today near Bab Hatta, one of the gates of Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied Jerusalem.
