RAMALLAH: Presidential spokesperson Nabil Abu Rudeineh today warned that the Israeli colonists’ ‘Flag March’ in Jerusalem and the ongoing genocidal war on Gaza would push the region towards a total conflagration.

Abu Rudeineh stated that the ‘Flag March’ organized by thousands of supremacist Jewish colonists in the occupied city of Jerusalem along with the ongoing genocidal war on Gaza and incessant attacks on Palestinians in the occupied West Bank would not change the reality of the city of Jerusalem as the eternal capital of the State of Palestine, and stressed that they constitute not only a violation of all international laws that consider East Jerusalem an integral part of the Palestinian territory occupied since 1967, but also a blatant provocation to Arab, Islamic and Christian sentiments.

He pointed out that the ongoing Israeli attempts to falsify the history of Jerusalem and alter its Palestinian-Arab character are futile attempts aimed at impose the policy of fait accompli on the city, promising t
hat all such attempts were doomed to fail.

Abu Rudeina warned of the continued attacks by terrorist colonists and members of the right-wing government on religious sites in Jerusalem, especially the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound, which will plunge the region into a religious war.

He called for the US administration, which supports and protects Israel, to intervene immediately to halt the genocidal war on Gaza and the ongoing attacks in the West Bank and Jerusalem, and held it responsible for their continuation as a result of its carte blanche support to the Israeli occupation.
