Occupied Jerusalem - SANA

The Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs confirmed that the Israeli occupation is escalating the demolition of Palestinian homes and facilities in the West Bank, to implement colonial annexation plans, taking advantage of the silence of the international community over its continued violations of international law.

In a statement today, carried by Wafa Agency, the Foreign Ministry condemned the recent statements of the Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, in which he confirmed that the occupation has demolished 30 Palestinian buildings since the beginning of this year, and that the demolitions will continue and increase, indicating that they come in the context of the occupation's open war on the Palestinian presence.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs indicated that the attempt to liquidate the Palestinian presence in Jerusalem and the rest of the West Bank is not limited to demolitions, but rather includes large-scale ethnic cleansing operations, as is the case in the Masafer Yatta area in Hebron and Khan al-Ahmar in Jerusalem and the Jordan Valley, where the occupation seizes lands, displaces the Palestinians, and establishes outposts. settlement and links it to the settlements established on the occupied Palestinian lands in 1948, in a war crime and a crime against humanity aimed at closing the door permanently to any opportunity to embody the Palestinian state on the ground with Jerusalem as its capital.
