Embassy of the State of Palestine

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates of the State of Palestine strongly condemns the terrorist attacks carried out by Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank, under the protection and coordination of the Israeli occupation army. The international community must act immediately to stop these crimes, protect Palestinian civilians, and ensure their legitimate and inalienable right to live in security and dignity on their own land.

Israeli occupation settler violence has intensified across the occupied West Bank in 2025. Attacks have escalated with the start of the annual olive harvest season, and are part of a systematic state-led campaign of violence. During this period, Israeli settlers and armed forces regularly block access to farmlands, assault farmers, and destroy olive trees, causing significant financial losses for rural families and harming the Palestinian economy.

On World Statistics Day, the Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics (PCBS) affirm that statistics serve as the mirror of truth in Palestine. Data is a powerful tool helping to shape humane and fair policies, support efforts to rebuild what the occupation has destroyed, and ensure that the Palestinian truth continues to bear witness to our people’s steadfastness and resilience under Israel's brutal occupation, and their hope for a dignified life and a better future.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates of the State of Palestine welcomes and deeply commends the decision made by the UK, Canada, and Australia to recognize the State of Palestine: this bold and principled decision reflects a firm commitment to international law, as well as demonstrates a genuine dedication to ending the occupation and achieving lasting peace; ensuring security, stability, and prosperity for the region and the world at large.
