Palestine’s Foreign Ministry has slammed Israel’s PM Netanyahu for using a map that erased the occupied West Bank borders, calling it the “truth of the colonial and racist agendas of the extremist right-wing government”.
“Netanyahu continues and repeatedly uses a map that includes the West Bank as part of the occupation state, in clear and explicit recognition of this racist colonial crime, and disregard of international legitimacy and its resolutions, international will for peace, and the signed agreements,” the ministry said.
“This behaviour is a blatant challenge to international efforts to stop the war of extermination and displacement and revive the peace process based on the two-state solution.”
The ministry added that it views the use of the map as a “flagrant violation of international law”, especially as Israel continues its military operation in the occupied territory for a seventh consecutive day.
