Jordan Denounces Israeli Plan to Build 22 New Settlements in the West Bank - Jordan News
Jordan Denounces Israeli Plan to Build 22 New Settlements in the West Bank Jordan has strongly condemned Israel's recent approval of plans to build 22 new settlements in the occupied West Bank, describing the move as a serious breach of international law and a direct assault on Palestinian rights. اضافة اعلان In a statement on Thursday, the Ministry of Foreign and Expatriates Affairs said the decision constitutes a "flagrant violation of international law and international humanitarian law," and undermines prospects for peace by entrenching the occupation. The ministry warned that such unilateral actions further erode the viability of a two-state solution by impeding the establishment of a sovereign Palestinian state along the June 4, 1967 lines, with East Jerusalem as its capital. Ministry spokesperson Ambassador Sufyan Qudah reiterated Jordan's outright rejection of the settlement expansion, calling it a violation of United Nations Security Council Resolution 2334. The resolution reaffirms the illegality of all Israeli settlement activity in the occupied Palestinian territories, including East Jerusalem, and demands an immediate halt to such practices. Qudah noted that the Israeli decision also contradicts the advisory opinion of the International Court of Justice, which deemed the settlements unlawful and called for the end of the occupation. He stressed that Israel's continued construction and expansion of settlements reflect a deliberate disregard for international appeals to cease these activities. "All measures and decisions taken by Israel in the occupied West Bank are null and void," Qudah said, adding that Israel holds no sovereignty over Palestinian land. He urged the international community to assume its legal and moral responsibilities by taking concrete steps to halt Israel's ongoing military operations in Gaza, curb the escalation in the West Bank, and ensure the protection of the Palestinian people. The statement also called for renewed efforts to support Palestinians in realizing their legitimate rights, including the right to self-determination and the establishment of an independent state.

Amman - (Saba): The Jordanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates condemned, on Thursday, the so-called Israeli Cabinet's decision to approve the construction of 22 new settlements in the West Bank, Palestine. In a statement, the Ministry affirmed that this decision is a flagrant violation of international law and international humanitarian law, and a clear violation of the inalienable right of the Palestinian people to establish their independent, sovereign state on the June 4, 1967, lines, with occupied Quds as its capital. The Ministry's official spokesperson, Sufyan Qudah, said that Jordan categorically rejects and condemns this decision, which violates UN Security Council resolutions, particularly Resolution 2334, which condemns all Israeli measures aimed at changing the demographic composition, character, and status of the Palestinian territories occupied since 1967, including occupied Quds. He pointed out that the UN Security Council resolution affirms that all Israeli settlement activities in the occupied Palestinian territory, including occupied Quds, are illegal under international law.

Jordan condemns "Israel's" settlement expansion in the West Bank
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates strongly condemned "Israel's" decision, as the occupying power in the West Bank, to approve the construction of 22 new settlements there. The Ministry called the decision a blatant violation of international law and international humanitarian law, and a clear infringement on the Palestinian people's inalienable right to establish their independent and sovereign state along the June 4, 1967 lines, with occupied Jerusalem as its capital. The official spokesperson for the ministry, Ambassador Dr. Sufyan Qudah, affirmed the Kingdom's absolute rejection and strong condemnation of this decision, which contravenes United Nations Security Council resolutions, particularly Resolution 2334. That resolution condemns all "Israeli" measures aimed at altering the demographic composition, character, and status of the occupied Palestinian territory since 1967, including occupied Jerusalem, and confirms that all "Israeli" settlement activities in the occupied Palestinian territory, including Jerusalem, are illegal under international law. It also aligns with the advisory opinion of the International Court of Justice (ICJ), which affirmed the need to end the Israeli Occupation, the illegality of colonial settlement construction, and the invalidity of all annexation measures concerning occupied Palestinian land. This decision comes as a deliberate disregard for continuous international calls to halt settlement activities and violations in the occupied Palestinian territories. Ambassador Qudah stressed that all "Israeli" actions and decisions in the West Bank are illegal and illegitimate, emphasizing that "Israel" has no sovereignty over the occupied Palestinian land. He called on the international community to fulfill its legal and moral responsibilities by compelling "Israel", the occupying power, to end its aggression on Gaza and its dangerous escalation in the occupied West Bank, to provide the necessary protection for the Palestinian people, to uphold their legitimate rights in establishing their independent, sovereign state along the June 4, 1967 lines with occupied Jerusalem as its capital, and to put an end to the crimes committed against them and hold those responsible accountable.

Jordan condemns Israeli occupation's decision to resume land "Settlement" in West Bank
Amman - Saba: The Jordanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs strongly condemned the Israeli occupation authorities' decision to resume the so-called "property rights settlement and land registration," particularly in Area "C" of the West Bank, describing this move as a blatant violation of international law and a dangerous attempt to impose Israeli sovereignty over the occupied Palestinian territories. In a statement issued on Tuesday, the ministry's official spokesperson, Ambassador Sufyan Qudah, said this decision represents a flagrant violation of international legitimacy resolutions, most notably UN Security Council Resolution 2334, which affirms the illegality of Israeli settlements and all resulting demographic or legal changes in the occupied Palestinian territories, including Al-Quds. Qudah noted that these measures also contravene the advisory opinion of the International Court of Justice, which emphasized the illegality of the occupation and settlements, stressing that the Israeli occupation holds no legal sovereignty over the occupied Palestinian lands. He called on the international community to uphold its legal and humanitarian responsibilities toward the Palestinian people, work to halt the occupation's ongoing aggression in Gaza Strip, put an end to the escalating tensions in the West Bank, and ensure the protection of Palestinians from the crimes of the occupation.
