Foreign Ministry: Appeals Do Not Exempt the International Community from Its Responsibility to End Famine and Aggression The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates stressed on Tuesday that international complacency in the face of genocide, forced displacement, and annexation carried out by the Israeli occupation authorities against the Palestinian people has become a silent cover for these violations and encourages their continuation and escalation. The Ministry pointed to the worsening catastrophic conditions in the Gaza Strip and the ongoing settler terrorism against Palestinians, particularly in the towns of Beitin and Masafer Yatta. اضافة اعلان In its statement, the Ministry affirmed that the responsibility of the international community does not end at merely describing the crimes and violations, but rather requires immediate and binding measures to compel the occupation to halt its aggression and comply with international law — including the protection of Palestinian civilians and the guarantee of their political and human rights. The Ministry called for a firm international response that translates repeated positions and condemnations into concrete actions to stop the ongoing acts of genocide and annexation. It warned that the failure of the international community to fulfill its responsibilities paves the way for the spread of the 'law of the jungle' at the expense of international legitimacy. The statement concluded by emphasizing that the world's silence cannot be considered neutrality, but rather an indirect participation in the continuation of the suffering and humanitarian catastrophe facing the Palestinian people.

Hamas official: Goal of talks is to end war, release detained Palestinians

Hamas official Ghazi Hamad said in an interview with Al Araby TV that the movement's main objective in ongoing negotiations is to stop the war on the Palestinian people. He stated that Hamas aims to secure the release of the largest possible number of Palestinian political prisoners in any potential deal with the Israeli Occupation. Hamad criticized what he described as 'Israeli' attempts to gain through negotiations what it failed to achieve on the battlefield, and expressed surprise at the US position, saying Washington has offered no explanation for the starvation in Gaza. He condemned the international silence over Gaza's humanitarian crisis and urged Arab and international actors to pressure 'Israel' to end its attacks. 'We have shown flexibility and positivity on all proposals that guarantee our people's rights,' he said, adding that Hamas is working toward a deal that would lead to a ceasefire and 'Israeli' withdrawal following a 60-day truce.

London and Ottawa Reject Macron's Palestinian Statehood Initiative over U.S. Concerns - Jordan News

French President Emmanuel Macron has spearheaded a broad diplomatic initiative aimed at recognizing the State of Palestine, working closely with Saudi Arabia and attempting to bring the United Kingdom and Canada on board. اضافة اعلان However, according to a Reuters report citing three informed diplomats, both London and Ottawa declined to join the effort, citing fears of political friction with Washington. In response to the lack of consensus, Macron has decided to proceed unilaterally, with France set to formally recognize the State of Palestine during the upcoming United Nations General Assembly session in September. A French diplomat confirmed to Reuters that Paris is continuing to mobilize broader international support ahead of the UN meeting, aiming to build momentum for a collective recognition, despite international complexities and pressure from major global powers. Macron officially announced on July 24 that France will recognize Palestine as a sovereign state at the upcoming UN assembly. In reaction, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu sharply condemned the French move. A statement from his office said: "Such a step rewards terrorism and risks creating another Iranian proxy, just as Gaza has become." The statement warned that under current conditions, a Palestinian state would be "a launching pad for the destruction of Israel."
