Arab Parliament Condemns New Israeli Agency Displacing Palestinians From Gaza Strip

The President of the Arab Parliament, Mohammed bin Ahmed Al Yamahi, has expressed strong disapproval of recent actions by Israeli authorities. These actions include the creation of an agency intended to displace Palestinians from Gaza and the approval of separating 13 settlement outposts in the West Bank for legalisation. Al Yamahi described these measures as a "dangerous escalation" aimed at removing Palestinians from their lands and increasing illegal settlements.

Al Yamahi's statement emphasised the Arab Parliament's unwavering opposition to any attempts to undermine the Palestinian cause or enforce unjust solutions. He highlighted that displacing Palestinians is considered a crime against humanity under international law and the Geneva Conventions, as well as a clear violation of both international and humanitarian laws.

Al Yamahi urged the global community, including the UN Security Council and international parliaments, to take responsibility for halting these serious violations against Palestinians. He called for immediate action to stop Israel's aggression in Gaza and its escalating activities in the West Bank. The President stressed the importance of recognising Palestinians' legitimate rights to establish an independent state with Jerusalem as its capital.

The Arab Parliament remains committed to opposing Israeli policies that aim to displace Palestinians and expand settlements. Al Yamahi reiterated the need to respect Palestinians' right to live with dignity on their land, in line with relevant international resolutions.

He also highlighted ongoing efforts by the Arab Parliament to address these issues, emphasising their dedication to confronting policies that threaten Palestinian rights. The call for action extends beyond regional boundaries, urging a collective response from international bodies.

In his statement, Al Yamahi underscored that these developments represent a significant threat not only to Palestinian sovereignty but also to regional stability. The situation requires urgent attention from all stakeholders involved in upholding peace and justice in the region.
