The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates condemned the heinous and continuing war crimes committed by the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) in Gaza, the latest one being the targeting of displaced residents at the UNRWA's Al-Fakhoura and Tal Al-Zaatar Schools, in a flagrant violation of international law and the absence of an international position to stop this raging war and the ensuing human catastrophe.

The Ministry's official spokesman, Ambassador Sufyan Al-Qudah, affirmed the Kingdom's strong rejection and condemnation of this act, which is incompatible with all human and moral values, and with the rules of international humanitarian law, especially the Geneva Convention of 1949 for the Protection of civilians in times of War.

Al-Qudah stated that the continued absence of justice and protection for the Palestinians, and the continuation of grave violations of international law and international humanitarian law, without effective international action to stop the brutal aggression against Gazans, represents a dangerous deterioration that must be stopped immediately, stressing the need for concerted efforts to stop this raging war on Gaza and stopping these repeated Israeli violations of international law and international humanitarian law, and attacks on civilians, non-military targets, schools, hospitals, and places of worship.

The Ministry's official spokesman also called on the international community, international organizations and bodies, especially the Security Council, to take all measures and procedures that would stop this disaster resulting from this aggression.
