Le MAE palestinien appelle à des sanctions internationales contre les colons sionistes
Summary
The Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates has called for international sanctions against Zionist settler groups due to ongoing violations and crimes in the occupied West Bank, as reported by the Palestinian news agency Wafa.
Key incidents highlighted include attacks on waste management workers in Beit Anan, assaults on students at Zanouta school, attacks on Palestinians at the Al-Auja spring, and sabotage of farmers’ water supply lines. Additional violence includes assaults on civilian vehicles in areas such as northern Hebron, northeastern Ramallah, and villages like Sinjil, Tourmous’iya, and Beita.
The ministry expressed alarm over settler encroachments on Palestinian lands, particularly in the northern Jordan Valley, and reported continuous assaults on Palestinians in Masafer Yatta, near Hebron. These aggressions are reportedly supported politically by Zionist authorities and are executed under the protection of the occupying army, which frequently intervenes to suppress Palestinian self-defense efforts.
The ministry framed these attacks within a broader strategy aimed at ethnic cleansing and genocide, as well as displacement and annexation targeting Palestinians across Gaza and the West Bank, including East Jerusalem. Despite the severity of these crimes, the ministry criticized the insufficient international responses to settler aggression.
Reiterating its appeal for comprehensive sanctions against the settler system, the ministry urged the international community to exert genuine pressure on the Zionist occupation to dismantle these groups and hold their members accountable.
The call for action emphasizes the urgent need for a robust international stance to protect Palestinian rights and stop settler violence that undermines peace and stability in the region.
