A call has gone to the international community to enforce international law and the adopted UN resolutions at its disposal to stop the ongoing American-Israeli carnage and bloodshed.
This call was made in Abuja by the Ambassador of the Embassy of the State of Palestine, Abdullah M. Abu Shawesh who explained that as at Tuesday, September 3, the death toll has risen to 40,738, with injuries risen to 94,154, while thousands still missing under the ruble, as he emphasized that 70% of them are innocent women and children.
Ambassador Shawesh noted that they do not only target the Palestinian people, but target the current economic and political orders that ruled the world after World War II, which no longer serve the interests of US hegemony and some Western empires.
“As of Tuesday, September 3, the death toll has risen to 40,738, with the injuries have risen to 94,154, while thousands still missing under the ruble, it goes without saying that 70% of them are innocent women and children”. He said.
As according to the Ambassador, 334 days of Israel’s genocidal war against the Palestinian people, the ongoing US-Israeli massacres of Palestinians are a wake-up call for all humanity around the world.
He said that “they are deliberately streaming and televising the genocide and turning their backs on international law in a clear message to the countries of the South: unless you accept the upcoming economic and political rules and systems, you will face the same fate of the Palestinian people”.
The Palestinian Government noted that It’s not only women and children who make up the majority of the Palestinian victims but also elderly Gazans, with about 4% of the innocent victims being elderly.
while giving a total number of Palestinians arrested which according to him stands at 10,400 citizens from the West Bank since October 7, including 725 children, 400 women, and 98 journalists, he said;
“Over 60 Palestinians have died in Israeli custody in recent months, many due to medical neglect.”
Shawesh explained that as all the boys and girls return to school these days, about 600,000 Gazans are denied the right to education for the second year in a row due to the ongoing Israeli war.
“To make matters worse, about 70% of UNRWA schools have been destroyed or damaged, and the majority of them are overcrowded shelters housing hundreds of thousands of displaced families.
“The Israeli war is not limited to Gaza but also extends to the Occupied West Bank, including East Jerusalem, where the Settlers thugs accompanied by the Occupation soldiers are attacking Palestinian communities on a daily basis.
In the West Bank, since the beginning of the war, 681 Palestinians have been martyred and nearly 6,700 have been injured”.
“Some of the world’s biggest arms exporters on top of them the USA are continuing to openly flout the rules of the Arms Trade Treaty through unlawful arms transfers, leading to a devastating loss of life in conflict zones such as the Occupied Palestinian Territory “500 transport planes and 107 ships have delivered more than 50,000 tons of armaments and military equipment from the United States to Israel since the start of the war in Gaza last October”
“States parties and signatories {of the Arms Trade Treaty}, including the USA – the largest provider of arms to Israel – continue to license arms transfers to Israel in spite of overwhelming evidence of war crimes committed by Israeli forces.
”Do I reveal a secret when I say that the US and some other Western countries are waging war against the Palestinian people? Of course not.
“We call on the international community to stand strong and firmly to enforce international law, the adopted UN resolutions and to utilize all political, economic, legal and diplomatic tools at its disposal to stop the ongoing American-Israeli carnage and bloodshed”. “As No One Is Safe Until Everyone Is Safe!!
