In a statement, the Malaysian Ministry of Foreign Affairs described this move as a calculated and inhumane maneuver, reflecting the Zionist regime’s intention to permanently occupy Palestinian lands.

The statement notes that this action flagrantly violates international law and the basic principles of human rights and justice.

The Malaysian government warned that if Israel continues its actions, it will end the peace process and deny the Palestinian people’s right to self-determination.

Furthermore, it urged all nations to reject Israel’s apartheid policies and demanded immediate and concrete action to recognize the State of Palestine.

The statement also calls internationally for a permanent ceasefire, the complete withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza, and an immediate end to the blockade on humanitarian aid.
