The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates called for mechanisms to compel that country to allow the massive and unrestricted entry of aid into the Gaza Strip, which is suffering a humanitarian crisis after more than 22 months of war.

The Ministry held, in a statement, the government of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu fully and directly responsible “for the crimes of genocide, displacement, famine, and annexation.”

The diplomatic institution also criticized the international community for its inability to stop such actions and its delay in implementing the United Nations Charter, international law, and Security Council resolutions on the matter.

It noted that the occupying army systematically violates human rights, imposes a suffocating siege, and murders the civilian population in Gaza, while in the West Bank, it gives the green light to attacks by extremist Israeli settler gangs.

Last week, the Palestinian Foreign Ministry urged the world to take firm and tangible measures to halt the Israeli war on the occupied territories and warned of the danger posed by the announced reoccupation of the Gaza Strip.
