Ramallah, (IINA) - Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas said on Wednesday that Palestinians will uphold the political, national and legal struggle and will not remain hostage to agreements disregarded by Israel, WAFA reported.
During a televised speech addressing the Palestinian people, he said: “The aggressive and growing Israeli attack against our people, land, and holy places undermine peace and stability. This attack threatens to ignite the fuse of a religious war, which will burn everything, not only in the region, perhaps even in the entire world”.
He urged the international community to immediately intervene in the recent developments before it is too late. He reiterated that Palestinians will never agree to change the status quo in Al-Aqsa Mosque and will not agree to any Israeli plan that aims to undermine the sacredness of and the site’s Islamic identity.
He affirmed that no peace shall prevail until the Israeli occupation ends and a Palestinian state on the borders of 1967 is established with Jerusalem as its capital.
The Palestinian president emphasized the importance of joining international treaties and organizations. He said that the Palestinian Authority has prepared files on settlement activities, Gaza aggression, political prisoners and the arson attacks against the Dawabshe family and Mohammad Abu Khudeir and presented them to the International Criminal Court (ICC).
Abbas pointed out that more files will be presented about the extrajudicial killings of Palestinians to the ICC. He also warned: “Who fears international law and sanctions must refrain from committing crimes against our people”.
