Mansour calls on the international community to hold the occupation accountable for its crimes against the Palestinians
New York (ST): Permanent Representative of Palestine to the United Nations, Riyad Mansour, called on the international community to hold the Israeli occupation authorities accountable for their ongoing crimes against the Palestinians in accordance with international law.
In letters addressed to the Secretary-General of the United Nations, the President of the Security Council, and the President of the General Assembly, Mansour explained, according to Wafa Agency, that “Israel,” the occupying power, continues to carry out killing operations in the occupied Palestinian territory, as its forces and settler gangs continue to target Palestinians, including children, with violence without deterrence or fear of consequences.
Mansour pointed out that the occupation forces stormed the city of Jenin yesterday and assaulted Palestinians with bullets, which resulted in the death of a young man and the wounding of a Palestinian woman, in addition to the death of two Palestinians on the fifteenth of August during the aggression of the occupation forces on the Aqabat Jaber camp in the city of Jericho.
Mansour pointed out that the Israeli settler gangs escalated their attacks on the cities and towns of the West Bank, as a result of the inciting statements made by more than one official in the occupation government against the Palestinian people, their existence and their just national rights, which fall within the framework of the policy of collective punishment and the crimes of ethnic cleansing pursued by the occupation to implement its Judaization and settlement plans.
