Embassy of the State of Palestine

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates of the State of Palestine strongly condemns the Israeli occupation authorities’ announced plans to construct 17 new colonial settlements in the occupied West Bank over the next five years. This blatant attempt to expand and tighten Israeli control over Palestinian land amounts to a formal declaration of the commission of a war crime.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates of the State of Palestine strongly condemns the Israeli draft legislative bill to impose the death penalty on Palestinian detainees, which constitutes a war crime. This proposed death-penalty law is the latest manifestation of Israel’s deepening extremism and criminality against the Palestinian people.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates of the State of Palestine welcomes the latest report of the UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian territories occupied since 1967, entitled “Gaza Genocide: A Collective Crime”. Decades of impunity and double standards have emboldened Israel to commit systematic and grave violations of international law. Third States' failure to uphold their legal obligations, by providing diplomatic cover, political protection, and military and economic support, has turned the Gaza genocide into a collective crime.
