Occupied Jerusalem - SANA
Palestine's permanent representative to the United Nations, Riyad Mansour, renewed his demand for the international community to shoulder its responsibilities and put pressure on the Israeli occupation entity to stop its continuing violations and crimes against the Palestinian people.
In a message sent today to the Secretary-General of the United Nations, the President of the Security Council and the President of the United Nations General Assembly, reported by Wafa Agency, Mansour stressed that the time has come to stop the blatant impunity for "Israel", the occupying power, from punishment that undermines any opportunity to reach a settlement for the establishment of an independent Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital. In accordance with the relevant UN resolutions.
Mansour pointed out that, in conjunction with its aggressive actions against the Palestinians, the occupation continues to demolish their homes in the West Bank and occupied Jerusalem, with the aim of expanding its settlement operations, referring in this regard to the report issued by the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), which stated that last February alone the occupation authorities demolished or seized On 153 Palestinian properties, which led to the displacement of 305 Palestinians, including 172 children, and damage to the livelihoods of 435 others.
Mansour indicated that the occupation authorities delivered eviction notices to residents of Jaloud village in the northern West Bank in preparation for demolishing it and seizing 5,000 dunums of their lands with the aim of Judaizing it.
