Amman: The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriate Affairs condemned, in the strongest terms, the targeting of an UNRWA shelter facility in Khan Yunis by Israeli occupation forces. The facility houses displaced Palestinians from the Gaza Strip who have fled the deliberate and ongoing targeting of their homes.
The ministry’s spokesperson, Sufian Qudah, said that Israel’s continued violations of international law and humanitarian law are the result of the absence of an effective and firm international position to end this raging war on the Gaza Strip, which is producing killing, destruction, and an unprecedented humanitarian catastrophe.
The spokesperson reaffirmed the Kingdom’s rejection and strong condemnation of this act, which is incompatible with all human and moral values and with the rules of international law, especially the Geneva Convention on the Protection of Civilian Persons in Time of War of 1949.
The spokesperson stressed the need to protect civilians, hospitals, and vital facilities that p
rovide essential services to Palestinian brothers and to enable the concerned organizations and bodies to carry out their humanitarian duty without obstacles or being targeted.
The spokesperson also renewed his call to the international community, international organizations, and especially the UN Security Council to stop this blatant challenge that Israel is posing to international law and to the international will calling for an end to the war and to put an end to these Israeli violations and to the tragedy that the war is producing on the Strip
