Parliament calls for support for efforts to try Israel for crimes against humanity

The bureau of the parliament on Thursday called for support for the steps taken by the Palestinians and the international community to try Israel for crimes against humanity in view of the atrocities committed against the Palestinian people, in blatant violation of international conventions and standards.

In a statement issued at the end of its meeting, the bureau of the Assembly of People’s Representatives (ARP) urged all regional and international parliaments to condemn the criminal acts of the Zionist entity and to take urgent action to put an end to the terrorism practised by the occupier and its serious consequences for peace and security in the region.

The parliament denounces a heinous crime committed by the Israeli occupation forces in the Jenin refugee camp, which did not spare the medical teams on the spot, causing several martyrs and injuries. It also condemns the destruction of public and private property and the abusive arrests carried out in the aftermath.

In its press release, the ARP hailed the resilience of the Palestinian people in the face of oppression, reaffirming its support for the just Palestinian cause and the fight to recover legitimate Palestinian rights.
