Foreign ministry denounces Israeli authorities’ decision to take over 218 dunums of land in Qalqilia

RAMALLAH, Sunday, March 26, 2023 (WAFA) – The ministry of foreign affairs and expatriates today condemned the Israeli authorities’ decision to take over 218 dunums of Palestinian land to the east of Qalqilia.

The ministry, in a statement, considered this decision as a formal Israeli determination on its creeping and silent annexation of the occupied West Bank.

He slammed this decision as a blatant defiance of international and US positions that reject settlements, which harm the chances of reviving peace based on the two-state solution.

The ministry condemned this decision as a blatant violation of international law, United Nations resolutions, and signed agreements, and a mockery of all understandings that were reached between the two sides during the recent meetings in Aqaba and Sharm el-Sheikh.

It stressed that deepening settlements is a dangerous escalation that sabotages any efforts extended to rebuild confidence between the two sides.
