Doha, Qatar: The State of Qatar expressed on Saturday its strong condemnation and denunciation of the attacks carried out by Israeli settlers against several villages in the occupied West Bank, considering them an extension of Israeli policies aimed at escalating violence against the brotherly Palestinian people and a flagrant violation of international law and relevant international legitimacy resolutions.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in a statement, affirmed that these crimes reflect the approach of the occupying government in enabling settlers to commit further violations and attacks under the protection of the Israeli army and security forces. 

It called on Israel to fulfill its obligations under international law and international humanitarian law, put an end to settlers' attacks, and hold those responsible accountable.

The Ministry urged the international community to take urgent action to halt the repeated Israeli attacks, provide protection for the brotherly Palestinian people, hold those responsible for these escalating attacks accountable, and ensure that they do not enjoy impunity.

The Ministry reiterated the State of Qatar's firm position on the justice of the Palestinian cause, the legitimate rights of the brotherly Palestinian people, and the establishment of their independent state on the 1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital.
