AMMAN, November, 21, 2024 (WAFA) – The Jordanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs condemned the Israeli occupation's bombing of a residential neighborhood in Beit Lahia and a house in Sheikh Radwan neighborhood in the Gaza Strip, which resulted in the killing of 80 civilians and the injury of dozens, most of them women and children.

The ministry stressed in a statement that this crime is a flagrant violation of the rules of international law, especially the Geneva Convention on the Protection of Civilian Persons in Time of War of 1949, and a war crime added to the ongoing crimes of the Israeli occupation in the Strip.

The official spokesman for the ministry, Sufyan Al-Qudah, stressed the Kingdom's absolute rejection and condemnation of Israel's continued violations of international law and international humanitarian law, and its continued systematic targeting of innocent civilians, in light of the Security Council's failure once again yesterday to reach a resolution imposing a ceasefire and the destruction and humanitarian catastrophe caused by the ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza.

He renewed his call on the international community to assume its legal and moral responsibilities, and to oblige the occupying state to immediately stop its ongoing aggression against Gaza, its ongoing violations of international law and international humanitarian law, stop its crimes against our people, and hold those responsible accountable.
