PUTRAJAYA, Saturday, February 25, 2023 (WAFA) - Malaysia today strongly condemned the attack by the Israeli occupation forces in the northern West Bank city of Nablus on 22 February killing at least 11 Palestinians and injuring more than 100 others.
“Such heinous acts clearly constitute crimes against humanity, and those responsible must be held accountable,” said a statement by Malaysia’s Foreign Ministry.
“Malaysia calls upon the international community to stop turning a blind eye to incessant violence and brutality perpetrated by the forces of the Israeli regime in the Occupied Palestinian Territory. The United Nations Security Council in particular must live up to its Charter-mandated responsibility. Palestinians too deserve peace, security and justice,” it added.
“Malaysia stands firm in our unwavering support for the Palestinians who rightfully deserve their independent state, based on pre-1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital.”
