Saudi Arabia condemns Israeli occupation authorities’ declaration of establishment of agency targeting displacement of Palestinians from Gaza Strip

The Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs has condemned the announcement by Israeli authorities to establish an agency aiming to displace Palestinians from Gaza and the approval of the separation of “13” illegal settlement neighborhoods in the West Bank as a prelude to formalize them as colonial settlements. The Kingdom reiterated its firm rejection of Israeli violations of international law and humanitarian law.

The Kingdom emphasized that a lasting and just peace cannot be achieved without the Palestinian people obtaining their legitimate rights in accordance with international legitimacy resolutions, and the establishment of an independent Palestinian state based on the 1967 borders with East Jerusalem as its capital.
