Palestinian Foreign Ministry calls for immediate implementation of the Palestinian draft resolution approved by the General Assembly

The Palestinian Foreign Ministry called on the International community to quickly implement the adoption by the UN General Assembly of a draft resolution submitted by the State of Palestine, which calls on “Israel” , the occupying power, to end its illegal presence in the occupied Palestinian territories during 12 months.

In a statement today, reported by Wafa Agency, the Foreign Ministry called for the immediate implementation of the resolution, in a way that ensures ending the occupation and colonization of the land of the State of Palestine as the only way to achieve security and stability in the region and the world.

The ministry pointed out that it is following up the occupation ‘s continuous seizure of Palestinian land with all countries and components of the international community, and with the competent international courts, so that they may assume their responsibilities in putting an end to the occupation’s crimes and its continued impunity.

The Ministry condemned the large-scale campaign of seizure of Palestinian lands by the occupation authorities throughout the West Bank, the latest of which was the seizure of hundreds of dunms of lands in Tubas, Tulkarm, the Jordan Valley, Al-Mughayyir and Husan, in addition to the ongoing ethnic cleansing campaign in Masafer Yatta.

The Ministry held the occupation government fully and directly responsible for the results of this dangerous escalation that it is committing in light of the global preoccupation with the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip.
