Doha: The State of Qatar has strongly condemned attacks by Israeli colonists against several villages across the occupied West Bank, describing them as an extension of Israeli policies aimed at escalating violence against the Palestinian people and as a flagrant violation of international law and international legitimacy resolutions.
According to Palestine News and Information Agency, the Qatari Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a statement on Saturday, highlighting that these attacks reflect the Israeli occupation government's policy of enabling colonists to commit further violations and assaults under the protection of the Israeli army and security forces. The ministry called on Israel to fulfill its obligations under international law and international humanitarian law, put an end to colonist attacks, and hold those responsible accountable.
The statement also urged the international community to take urgent action to halt Israel's repeated attacks, provide protection for the Palestinian people, and ensure that those responsible for the escalating violence do not enjoy impunity. Qatar's Foreign Ministry reaffirmed the country's steadfast position in support of the justice of the Palestinian cause and the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people, including the establishment of an independent Palestinian state along the 1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital.
