International community’s failure to hold Israel accountable for its grave violations in the occupied Palestinian territories encourages it to commit more crimes: Mansour

Palestine’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations Riyad Mansour has stressed that the failure of the international community to hold the Israeli occupation authorities accountable for their crimes against the Palestinians and for their grave violations of international law encourages Israel to commit more crimes in the occupied territories.

WAFA News Agency said that in three letters to the Secretary General of the United Nations, the President of the Security Council and the President of the UN General Assembly, Mansour said that the recent period have witnessed massive escalation in expanding settlement building by the Israeli occupation to implement its colonialist annexation schemes. The Israeli forces and settlers also stepped up terrorism against the Palestinians through arresting and killing unarmed Palestinian, including children, and through demolishing the Palestinians’ houses in Ras Al-Tin area near Ramallah in the West Bank which led to the displacement of 84 Palestinians, including 53 children and 14 women, Mansour added.

He also referred to the psychological and physical torture, which the Palestinian prisoners in the Israeli jails are being exposed to.

 Mansour urged the international community, including the Security Council, to convey clear and firm messages to Israel that it must respect international law, including the relevant Security Council resolutions.
