Palestinian Cabinet calls for urgent international action to save the Gaza Strip and stop the escalating crimes of the occupation.

The Cabinet called on various countries of the world during its weekly session today, Tuesday, to take urgent action to save the Gaza Strip, in light of the announcement by the occupying army of the start of a ground invasion of the city of Gaza after threatening its residents and demanding their forced evacuation.

It emphasized that putting Palestinians in front of two options: death or displacement, is a precedent not seen in modern history, and can only be described as a complete war crime against two million Palestinian civilians whom the occupation has relentlessly tormented through killing, burning, and starving, depriving those who survived of the most basic necessities of life.

The Cabinet also strongly condemned the escalation of the occupation's practices, including the doubling of closure measures, land confiscation, and the installation of barriers and iron gates at the entrances of Palestinian villages, which have exceeded a thousand, carrying with it collective punishment and racial segregation that has extended deep into Palestinian territories.

It also denounced the increasing targeting of Palestinian workers, martyrs of a livelihood, by occupation soldiers in areas of contact, where they are killed in cold blood without posing any threat.

The Council warned of the danger of the occupation's decision to control the internal courtyard of the Ibrahimi Mosque under the pretext of its ceiling, considering this a blatant violation of all international norms and laws.

The Council affirmed that what is happening today in the Judaization and targeting of the blessed Ibrahimi Sanctuary is not merely a Palestinian issue, but a blatant assault on a global human heritage that belongs to all humanity.

In light of this, the Council directed the relevant authorities to take urgent action with international organizations, led by UNESCO, to pressure towards stopping these occupying practices.

Additionally, Prime Minister Mohammad Mustafa briefed the Council members on the political movements and diplomatic efforts led by the President in preparation for the international summit to support the New York Declaration.

The Cabinet approved the recommendations of the national team to combat the flooding of the local market with low-value and low-specification products, especially in the clothing, footwear, stone, and cleaning sectors as a first phase.

The Cabinet also discussed the steps taken to resume work on the wastewater treatment plant project in Hebron and approved the additional annex to the consulting services contract to oversee the project.

It approved the strategy for micro, small, and medium enterprises, which will contribute to the sustainable growth and development of the national economy.

The Council discussed in the second reading the national energy efficiency plan in Palestine for the years 2025-2030.
