UN Urged To Stop Israeli Aggression Against Palestinians

The Palestinian government has urged the United Nations to stop the lingering Israeli aggression against the Palestinian people by implementing international law to secure the lives of the people.

The Palestinian Ambassador to Nigeria, Abdallah Abu Shawesh, made this call in a statement yesterday stressing that the Israeli Occupation Forces had launched a wide and extensive brutal aggression in Jenin refugee camp in the early hours of Monday.

The envoy said the international community should uphold and stand firm for the implementation of international law, UN resolutions, Human Right Declaration, and the Geneva Convention and compelled the Israeli Defence force to stop perpetrating killings and destruction of the homes of the Palestinians.

According to the Ambassador, the military attacks started with air strikes on many homes and other civilian properties in the densely populated Palestine refugee camp by a fully armed ground force that stormed the refugee camp.

The statement reads: “This aggression led to the loss of ten Palestinian souls, other tens wounded and heavy damage to properties and infrastructure.

“The international community should uphold and stand firm for the implementation of international law, UN resolutions, Human Right Dectaration, the Geneva Convention and many other agreed international legal instruments that were created to maintain the peace and security all over the world, and to secure and save the lives of defenseless people, including the Palestinian people.

“The international community should also take clear and firm stance to oppose and enforce Israel, the occupying Power, to stop its current aggression and attacks on civilians in Jenin refugee camp and to fully respect its obligations under international law as the occupying Power.

“It is evident that Israel’s sole and predominant choice is war, trampling international law and trifling all UN resolutions, and is in pursuant of a military solution, and constantly attempting to get rid of the Palestinian people from their ancient homeland by forcing them to surrender to its tyrannical messianic apartheid regime.

“The latest military aggression came is a result of the incitement campaign led by the current racist and far right Israeli government. The clear double standards used by the international community gives the green light for Israel, the occupying Power, to commit more crimes and more killing of the Palestinian people.

“We call for a real and effective legal and diplomatic measures against Israel, the occupying Power, similar to what had been taken in other parts of the world. It’s long overdue for the international community to act immediately, and to take the tangible measures to put an end to the shameful silence and constant inaction”.
