On 72nd anniversary of Nakba : Palestinians are adamantly adhering to their inalienable rights

Occupied  Jerusalem (ST): Since the Nakba of the Palestinian people in 1948, the Palestinians have been suffering one Nakba after another. The international community has been keeping silent towards the atrocious crimes of the Israeli forces of occupation against the Palestinian people. The UN also failed to implement its resolutions pertaining to the Palestine question, especially the Palestinians right to return to their indigenous homeland and the establishment of an independent Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital.

Deputy Chairman of the Palestinian Refugees Department Ahmad Abu Hawla said that the makers of the Nakba wanted Palestine to be a land without people for a people without land. To achieve this end, the Zionist entity perpetrated the ugliest crimes and atrocities to liquidate the Palestine question. However, the Palestinians’ strong will foiled all the conspiracies  through adherence to their lands and rights.

Abu Hawla said that a campaign under the title of  “ We will return to Palestine” was launched on the social media outlets to affirm the Palestinian people’s commitment to all their inalienable rights.

Director of the International Jerusalem Centre Hasan Khater affirmed that the forthcoming Palestinian generations will never forget the savage massacres their fathers and forefathers were subjected to at the hands of the Zionist gangs, stressing the commitment of all Palestinians to their repatriation right.

The conspiracies against the Palestinians have been successive since the Balfour Declaration in 1917.  The most recent chapter of the conspiracy against the Palestine question was the Israeli occupation authorities’ announcement about their intention to annex parts of the West Bank supported by the Trump administration which has been offering gifts to Israel over the past years. In 2018, Trump announced the transfer of the US embassy from Tel Aviv to occupied Jerusalem declaring it the eternal capital of Israel ignoring all UN resolutions and conventions.

The Palestinian National Council has demanded all world governments to express solidarity with the Palestinian people and their legitimate resistance to restore their inalienable rights to self-determination and the establishment of an independent Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital, calling on world parliaments to work with their governments to impose sanctions against Israel to make it end its occupation of the Palestinian territories and prevent it from annexing parts of the West Bank.
