PALESTINES on Saturday (12/10) asked the United States (US) to stop supporting Israel and force Israel to end their aggression and comply with international resolutions.

“The US government must force its strategic ally, Israel, to stop its aggression in the Gaza Strip and the occupied West Bank, and comply with international legitimacy resolutions and the rulings of the International Court of Justice,” said the official spokesman for the Palestinian Presidency, Nabil Abu Rudeineh, in a statement.

“Washington must stop its support for Israel, which continues to commit brutal crimes, inflaming the region and pushing it towards a full-scale explosion that no one will be able to stop,” he added.

Rudeineh held the US responsible for the ongoing Israeli genocide in Gaza, the West Bank and Jerusalem, particularly highlighting the total siege imposed on northern Gaza. The Palestinian official reiterated that the only solution to all problems in the region is to end the Israeli occupation and establish a Palestinian state based on Palestinian, Arab and international legitimacy.

Separately, the Fatah movement’s Central Committee issued a statement calling for broad international action to stop the injustices committed against Palestine and its people, and to save northern Gaza from accelerated genocide.

The Fatah leadership expressed its absolute rejection of the global failure to confront the genocide committed against the Palestinian people, with northern Gaza now witnessing one of its final chapters. Since October 6, the Israeli army has imposed a tight siege of Jabalia, following an unprecedented escalation of violence in northern Gaza.

Israel continued to launch brutal attacks on Gaza following a cross-border attack by the Palestinian group Hamas on October 7, 2023, despite a UN Security Council resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire. Nearly 42,200 people have died since then, mostly women and children, and more than 98,300 people have been injured, according to local health authorities.

Israel’s offensive has displaced nearly the entire population of the Gaza Strip amid an ongoing blockade that has caused severe shortages of food, clean water and medicine. Israel faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) for its actions in Gaza. (Ant/Z-2)
