Palestinian Foreign Ministry urges Security Council, ICC to put an end to the Israeli occupation’s settlement building activities

International

The Palestinian Foreign Ministry has called on the UN Security Council and the International Criminal Court (CC) to assume their moral and legal responsibility towards putting an end to the Israeli occupation settlement building operations in the occupied Palestinian territories and towards enforcing the UN relevant resolutions, particularly Resolution No. 2334.

In a statement on Wednesday, the ministry said that the occupation’s announcement on establishing 350 settlement units near the West Bank city of Al-Bireh undermines any opportunity to establish an independent Palestinian state with Al-Quds as its capital.

Settlement building activities, house demolition and displacement are war crimes and crimes against humanity whose perpetrators should be held accountable for, the ministry said.

The ministry reiterated that settlement activities in all its kinds are void and illegal according to the international legitimacy resolutions, Geneva conventions, the International Law and the International Humanitarian Law, pointing out that this issue is one of the most important files that were referred to the ICC by the state of Palestine.
