The Minister said that it is also a manifestation of the open imposition of force and coercion as well as various globally-known murders and crimes against the original and authentic inhabitants of Palestine by the unlawful Israeli regime.
He said, “These days, not only the inculpable Palestinian men and women as well as unhoused and innocent kids are being killed by Israeli criminals, but also medical, relief centers, hospitals, mosques and churches are not spared from the evil of the authorities and forces of this fake and beast-tempered regime.”
He said that the acts of the Zionists can be undoubtedly considered as being in violation of the most evident basics of human rights and visible manifestation of combined crimes against humanity, genocide, apartheid and ethnic cleansing.
He said that more than 33,000 Palestinians, the majority of whom women and children have been killed in just six months. He said that attempts to forcibly displace the people of Gaza constitute yet another solid evidence of the malicious policy of the murder Zionist regime to deliberately destroy the Palestinians and their identity.
He asked the UN Security Council, the United Nations and the International Court of Justice and the International Criminal Court the elements to take effective preventive and punitive actions against Israel.
Emphasizing the natural and inherent right of the Palestinian nation to legitimately resist oppression and occupation, Iran, has responsibly presented a democratic initiative for the Palestinian issue which has been registered in the United Nations. Iran believes that the oldest and most painful crisis of the present century in the region and the world can be resolved through a referendum with the help of the United Nations among the original inhabitants of Palestine, he said.
