The Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated that "Amnesty International joins a long line of prominent Palestinian, Israeli and international human rights organizations and experts who have worked to expose the Israeli colonial occupation based on oppression and systematic control of the Palestinian people, and are determined to gain legitimacy "To determine his fate, and seeks to distort the history, present and future of the Palestinian people in his homeland."
The Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs stressed in its statement "the importance of the report in exposing the racist acts to perpetuate a systematic and widespread policy of oppression, colonialism and apartheid and other violations suffered by the Palestinian people since the Nakba."
