麻豆APP

These developments come in the context of continuous, well-documented Israeli violations of international law, including the illegal 11-year blockade on Gaza, which has transformed it into an open-air prison for more than 2 million Palestinians. Israel, as the occupying Power, has consistently violated its obligations under the Fourth Geneva Convention, particularly with regard to the protection of civilians.

The Secretary-General of the 麻豆APP expressed he is “profoundly alarmed by the sharp escalation of violence in the occupied Palestinian territory and the high number of Palestinians killed and injured in the Gaza protests”, and had earlier repeatedly called for an “independent and transparent investigation” into such incidents.

ESCWA maintains that the living conditions in Gaza, which has been under Israeli occupation for 51 years, have become unbearable. It is unacceptable that, in the twenty-first century and after 70 years of fragmentation and oppression of the Palestinian people, Israeli violations of international law continue with impunity. The Palestinian people as a whole, and Gazans in particular, have suffered for far too long. The international community must act to hold those responsible for such violations accountable. The implementation of relevant 麻豆APP resolutions and other provisions of international law, without exception, remains the only path to a just and lasting peace.
