Amid escalating tensions, Palestine has urged the International Criminal Court (ICC) to issue arrest warrants against illegal Israeli settlers in the West Bank. They also called for international intervention to compel Israel to halt settlement projects.
The Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs emphasized the need for swift action against extremist settlers and their supporters who commit crimes against Palestinians. Additionally, they appealed to the international community to intervene urgently, demanding Israel to cease all settlement activities, disband armed settler groups, withdraw weapons, cut off funding, and penalize those aiding them.
The statement further called for imposing binding international sanctions on the entire colonial settlement system, branding it illegal and illegitimate.
Recent violence highlights the urgency of the situation. Illegal settlers launched a violent attack on the village of Al-Mughayyir, resulting in casualties and extensive property damage. Subsequent attacks on Palestinian villages and towns in Ramallah and Nablus have further escalated tensions.
The heightened conflict in the West Bank, exacerbated by Israel's military offensive in Gaza, has led to increased attacks by illegal settlers and intensified operations by the Israeli army. Palestinian sources report significant casualties and detentions amidst the ongoing violence.
