Qatar calls for UN probe into Israeli attacks

QNA

DJIBOUTI QATAR has stressed the need to urge the UN Security Council to adopt a resolution establishing a UN commission of inquiry for investigation into all Israeli attacks and acts of aggression against the Palestinian people in the occupied Palestinian territories and bring to justice all Israeli officials responsible for these crimes.

The call for a UN probe came in a speech by Minister of State for Foreign Affairs HE Khalid bin Mohamed al Attiyah before the 39th session of the Council of Foreign Ministers of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) being held in Djibouti.

Attiyah urged the international community to honestly and sincerely boost support for the Palestinian people following the recent Israeli attacks on Gaza.

He voiced concern over the barbaric killings of the unarmed Palestinians in Gaza by Israel, which confirms once again its inhuman approach towards the Palestinian people. “Israel’s attacks are aimed at taking revenge on Palestinians, which constitutes a flagrant violation of all international norms, and cannot be justified as acts in self-defence,” said Attiyah.

“What is happening in the occupied Palestinian territories, the suffering of the people of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip including the killings, destruction, land confiscation, the wall of apartheid raised by Israel are violation of resolutions of international legitimacy and meant to destroy all chances of a peaceful resolution of the Palestinian problem.

This makes clear the seriousness of the current situation not only to the Palestinian people, but to the entire Islamic nation,” he added.
