Palestine FM holds 'Israel' fully responsible for violations, crimes

• 

The Palestinian Foreign Ministry warned the international community against being dragged into the slogans and stances of the Israeli occupation and its attempts to exclude the Palestinian cause from the international community's priorities.

In a statement, the Ministry called on the UN Security Council to address its legal and moral responsibilities toward this historical injustice that has befallen the Palestinian people, stop the policy of double standards, and take the necessary measures to compel the Israeli occupation to comply with international law and implement international legitimacy resolutions before it is too late.

The Ministry stressed that the Israeli aggression on Palestinians aims to liquidate the Palestinian cause and the rights of the Palestinian people in an attempt to transform it from the issue of a people struggling for their right to self-determination into a population issue that needs relief programs.

The Palestinian Ministry also condemned "Israel's" open war against the Palestinian people and their just and legitimate national rights, and the resulting violations and crimes against the Palestinian land and citizens' homes, facilities, property, and sanctities.

The statement pointed to the arrogance of the Israeli settlers' militias and their armed terrorist organizations, as well as their repeated attacks against citizens in their homes under the protection, supervision, and support of the IOF.

The Palestinian Foreign Ministry held the Israeli occupation government fully responsible for its violations and crimes, adding that the implementation of more colonial projects in the occupied West Bank "undermines the opportunity to achieve peace on the basis of the principle of the two-state solution" and sabotages any international and regional efforts exerted "to bring the views of the Palestinian and Israeli sides closer."

Earlier, dozens of Israeli settlers stormed the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque from the Mughrabi Gate.

The Islamic Endowment Department reported that dozens of Israeli settlers stormed Al-Aqsa Mosque in the morning, organized provocative tours in its courtyards, and performed Talmudic rituals in the Bab Al-Rahma area and in front of the Dome of the Rock Mosque, before leaving from Bab Al-Silsila side.

IOF carry out arrest campaign in Yatta, Jenin, Beit Lahm

Israeli occupation forces (IOF) arrested Tuesday two Palestinian youths, one of whom is a freed prisoner from Tulkarm.

Local sources told Wafa news agency that the IOF arrested freed prisoner Shadi Jaar, and Islam Al-Saai after raiding their houses and vandalizing their belongings.

In Nablus, IOF arrested Adam Farraj after raiding and ransacking his house.

Security sources added that the IOF raided the town of Yatta, seized two vehicles, and arrested Qutaiba Nawaja'a, Thaer Nawaja'a, Mohammad Harizat, Shadi Al-Amour, and Hammouda Dais.

In addition, the IOF set up military checkpoints at the entrances to the towns of Si'ir and Halhul, and at the northern entrance to the city of Al-Khalil.

The IOF also arrested Qusai Jarrar, from the town of Jaba, south of Jenin, while he was in the '48 occupied Palestinian territories.

In the same context, Israeli occupation forces intensified their presence in the south of Jenin at dawn Tuesday and placed barriers in the vicinity of Arraba, Ya'bad, Marka, Fahmeh, Sanur, and Bir Al-Basha.

Also at dawn, the IOF arrested Anas Sabateen, Uday Abu Alia, and Rami Al-Lahham from Dheisheh Refugee Camp, south of Beit Lahm, while they were near the Murad junction on the western side of the city.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent stated on Monday that five Palestinians were injured and five others were detained as they stood up to an attempt by the IOF to infiltrate the Jenin camp.

According to Wafa news agency, four civilians, including a child, were injured, and five others were detained, as Israeli occupation forces stormed the city of Jenin. 

The Jenin Brigades confirmed that it had targeted the IOF and its military vehicles near the camp in the occupied West Bank.

The Brigades added that its Resistance fighters opened fire and used explosive devices to target the IOF in Duwar Al-Cinema and Al-Nasera street.

This came after the Khalil Suleiman Governmental Hospital in Jenin announced the martyrdom of Hamad Abu Jeldah, 24, from Jenin, after succumbing to wounds he sustained by IOF gunfire last Tuesday. That was followed by the PIJ publishing Abu Jeldah's obituary and praising the Palestinian heroes and freedom fighters whose battlefields are expanding in the occupied West Bank.
