The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates today condemned Israeli crimes against the Palestinian people, the latest of which was the storming this morning of Balata refugee camp in Nablus, which led to the killing of three Palestinians and the injury of others, as well as causing heavy destruction to homes and property, and called on the International Criminal Court (ICC) to break its silence and prosecute Israelis responsible for these crimes.

The ministry said in a statement that these crimes committed by the Israeli occupation forces are part of the daily killing of Palestinians in the occupied territories with the approval and blessings of the Israeli political leadership.

The Foreign Ministry held the Israeli government fully and directly responsible for these crimes, urging the international community to provide protection for the Palestinian people while stressing that the Ministry will follow up this heinous crime with the ICC, calling on the Court’s Prosecutor to break his silence and assume his responsibilities by speeding up his investigations without any hesitation leading to holding the killers and criminals accountable and prosecute them.
