Presidential spokesman Nabil Abu Rudeineh warned on Friday of the danger of the escalation of crimes committed by terrorist settlers, with the support and protection of the Israeli occupation forces, against Palestinian citizens in the West Bank, as happened yesterday in the village of Jit, east of Qalqilya, where a young man was killed, others were injured, and homes and vehicles were burned.

He added that these attacks and crimes by the terrorist settler militias are nothing but a result of the continued war of extermination waged by the Israeli occupation state against our people, their sanctities and their property, holding the occupation government fully responsible for these crimes.

Abu Rudeineh added that the genocidal war committed by the occupation in the Gaza Strip, the continued crimes of killing and arrest in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, the escalating attacks by settlers, and the attacks on Islamic and Christian holy sites, require urgent intervention by the US administration to fo
rce the occupation authorities to stop their crimes that have violated all the prohibitions of international law due to the blind US support politically, militarily and financially, stressing that the timid US position is not enough.

The official spokesman for the presidency stressed the need for the international community to intervene to implement the decisions of international legitimacy and international courts, the latest of which was the decision of the International Court of Justice, which confirmed that the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian territories is illegal, and that Israel must end its occupation, dismantle its settlements and remove its settlers from the occupied Palestinian territories.

He stressed that the positions condemning the settlers’ attack on the village of Jit by the United Nations, the US administration and the European Union are good, but these positions must be transformed into actions through immediate action to force Israel to stop its comprehensive aggression against our
people, their land and their holy sites, and to put an end to all crimes committed by the occupation forces and settlers and impose more sanctions on them to curb their escalating terrorism.
