The United Nations has strongly condemned statements by Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz, who vowed to carry out "temporary evacuations" of Palestinians from the cities of Jenin and Tulkarm in the northern occupied West Bank.
This was stated by the spokesperson for the United Nations Human Rights Office, Ravina Shamdasani, today, Friday, during a press statement from Geneva.
“These statements only serve to escalate a very bad situation,” Shamdasani said, noting that such statements by officials could encourage human rights violations.
The UN official expressed her deep concern about what is happening in the West Bank, where the occupation has launched a broad aggression, warning of the danger of the catastrophic situation worsening.
At dawn on Wednesday, the Israeli occupation army began a military aggression in the northern West Bank, the largest since 2002.
