RIYADH, Saudi Arabia
Saudi Arabia has condemned Israeli forces’ attack in the occupied West Bank’s Jenin area, the Saudi Press Agency said early Thursday.
Gunfire and explosions rocked
Jenin on Wednesday, an AFP journalist reported, as the Israeli military kept up
a large-scale raid for a second day.
The operation, launched just
days after a ceasefire paused more than a year of fighting in Gaza, has left at
least 10 Palestinians dead, according to Palestinian health authorities.
Israeli officials have said
the raid is part of a broader campaign against militants in the West Bank,
citing thousands of attack attempts since the Gaza war erupted in October 2023.
“The Kingdom renews its demand
for the international community to assume its responsibilities towards halting
Israeli violations of relevant international laws and treaties,” a Saudi
foreign ministry statement read.
Saudi Arabia warned that the
continuation of these violations might cause the fighting and chaos to return
to occupied Palestinian territories, thus risking the security and safety of
civilians and undermining chances of peace in the region.
