Egypt – The Egyptian House of Representatives held all concerned parties, especially the Israeli government, fully responsible for the dangerous escalation of events in the Palestinian territories and the undermining of the negotiations process.
Egyptian Parliament Speaker Hanafi Jabali said, “Everyone has followed with interest the development of events related to the occupied Palestinian territories during the past 24 hours, which took different paths, as Hamas announced its acceptance of the truce in the Gaza Strip in response to the great Egyptian effort and Egyptian-Qatari mediation.” In preparation for ending the humanitarian nightmare that the people of the Gaza Strip have been struggling with for more than 200 days, the Israeli government warned the residents of the eastern neighborhoods of the Palestinian city of Rafah to evacuate immediately and head towards the center of the Gaza Strip, arrogantly threatening a ground attack on the city, followed by launching “Air raids east of the city and shelling it with fire belts.”
Jabali stressed that “the Egyptian House of Representatives holds all concerned parties, especially the Israeli government, fully responsible for any action that leads to a dangerous escalation of events and undermines the process of negotiations to reach a peaceful solution that spares the blood of civilians.”
The Council called on all parties to be well aware that we are dealing with extremely complex and highly sensitive situations, in which no party is the strongest or the most firmly established, and that there is no escape from adopting the language of dialogue and negotiation as a means of resolving differences, and listening to the voices of reason instead of the voice of weapons. In order to reach an agreement that would lead to an end to the human suffering experienced by the Palestinian people, complete the exchange of hostages and prisoners, and begin a process leading to the establishment of a Palestinian state.
He also called on the international community to break the shameful silence and adopt measures to prevent further crimes once morest the Palestinian people, and urged Israel to adopt a peace approach with the aim of reaching a peaceful and just solution to the Palestinian issue.
He explained that the House of Representatives praises the Egyptian role since the outbreak of events until the moment, in its efforts aimed at peace and stopping bloodshed, which did not stop for a single moment despite the difficulties it faces.
Jabali stressed that “the House of Representatives endorses and supports the firm steps taken by President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi, President of the Republic, in preserving the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people, far from gambling or bidding on those rights, and his constant striving to protect them, and the best evidence of that is; His tireless and continuous efforts to reach an urgent ceasefire in the Palestinian territories.
