The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates on Tuesday condemned ongoing Israeli military incursions into Palestinian towns, the latest of which were dawn attacks in the cities of Nablus and Ramallah.
It warned that the military escalation would lead to a new spiral of violence for which “everyone will pay a price.”
The violence will breed more violence, it said, warning that the Israeli raids into Palestinian cities and measures to perpetuate the occupation amid the persistent stalemate in the peace process, would push for a dangerous escalation, for which Israel will be responsible, threaten regional peace and stability and kill the last hope of achieving just peace.
It stressed the necessity that Israel halts all military operations against the Palestinians and all illegal measures that undermine the two-state solution and chances for peace.
The Foreign Ministry called for a prompt move by the international community to provide protection to the “brotherly” Palestinian people, and launch a real effort to achieve a just peace that ends the occupation and fulfills an independent Palestinian state with occupied Jerusalem as its capital on the lines of June 4, 1967, which lives in peace and security alongside Israel, on the basis of the two-state solution and relevant international legitimacy resolutions and the Arab Peace Initiative.
