PUTRAJAYA, Aug 30 – The international community must now take decisive and concrete actions to stop the Zionist Israeli regime from continuing its genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity in the Palestinian Territories, said the Foreign Ministry in a statement.
According to the statement, the time for empty condemnations has passed.
It said the large-scale assaults by the Zionist Israeli regime’s security forces against the cities of Jenin, Tulkarem, Tubas, and Nablus in the West Bank in the last 48 hours clearly violate international law, including international human rights law and international humanitarian law.
The operations by the regime in the West Bank have resulted in devastation and the death of more than 600 Palestinians since Oct 2023. While continuing its military assaults in the West Bank, the regime is still bent on prolonging its ethnic cleansing and genocide in Gaza, where more than 40,000 Palestinians have been martyred.
“Malaysia unequivocally condemns the continuous brutal aggression and atrocities by the Zionist Israeli regime across the Palestinian Territories of Gaza and West Bank.
“Clearly, the Zionist Israeli regime has no interest in peace. Instead, the regime seeks to expand the war, threatening peace and security in the region,” the ministry said.
The statement said Malaysia and the rest of the international community have voiced solid support for the three-phased ceasefire proposal by the United States as endorsed by the United Nations Security Council in its Resolution 2735 (2024).
Yet, the Zionist Israeli regime keeps on moving its goalposts, further complicating the ceasefire negotiations mediated by the United States, Egypt and Qatar.
