  • UN: Permanent Sovereignty Project for Palestinians on their Natural Resources
    UN: occupation authorities' are violating international law.

The United Nations General Assembly adopted a resolution affirming the right of the Palestinian people to permanent sovereignty over their natural resources.

The decision was adopted based on a recommendation by the Second Economic and Financial Committee with a majority of 157 votes in opposition to "Israel" and six countries, while 14 countries abstained from voting.

The General Assembly also affirmed, in its resolution, the inalienable rights of the Palestinian people to their natural resources, including land, water, and energy.

The resolution indicated that the Israeli occupation authorities' construction of the apartheid wall and settlements in the West Bank is in violation of international law and deprives the Palestinian people of their natural resources.

The resolution called on the UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres to present at the next session of the General Assembly a report on the implementation of this resolution and the cumulative effect of the Israeli occupation authorities' exploitation of the natural resources belonging to the Palestinians in the occupied territories.

In his turn, the Permanent Representative of the State of Palestine, Riyad Mansour, said that the vote in favor of the resolution confirms the international community's support for the full rights of the Palestinian people.

It is worth mentioning that Israeli media said that "Israel's" Ambassador to the United Nations, Gilad Erdan, tore up a copy of the annual Human Rights Council report on Israeli crimes against Palestinians from the General Assembly rostrum in New York.
