RAMALLAH, Monday, May 6, 2024 (WAFA) – The official spokesman for the Palestinian Presidency Nabil Abu Rudeineh Monday warned that the occupation authorities had actually begun preparing to commit the greatest crime of genocide by invading Rafah, holding the US administration responsible for these dangerous Israeli policies.

Abu Rudeineh said that the US administration, which provides financial and military support to Israel, and stands against the international community to prevent the implementation of international legitimacy resolutions and the cessation of aggression, is the one that encourages Netanyahu and his leaders to continue committing massacres against the Palestinian people, whether in the Gaza Strip or in the West Bank, as is happening in Tulkarm Governorate, and its camps.

He added that the invasion of Rafah means that a million and a half Palestinian citizens will be subjected to a genocidal massacre and displacement attempts that were previously warned about.

"Therefore, we call on the US administration to act immediately and prevent genocide and displacement, and hold Israel accountable for the serious violations it commits against international law before it is too late," he noted.

Abu Rudeineh stressed that peace and security in the entire region will not be achieved without a just solution to the Palestinian cause and the establishment of an independent Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital, with its Islamic and Christian sanctities.
