Minister of Defense of the country, Israel Katz, said it will not allow the return of people who have been expelled, intensifying the tension in the region
The Brazilian government expressed its concern about recent NAS military operations, which resulted in the forced removal of about 40,000 Palestinians. This action, which involved the use of tanks by the Israeli army, marks the first time in two decades that such a measure is adopted to dislodge the local population. Brazil’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs has condemned this practice, in a statement and said: “The Brazilian government expresses a strong concern for the intensification of Israeli military operations in the refugee camps of Jenin, Tulkarm and Nur al-Shams, in recent weeks, Northern West Bank, and condemns the recent use of tanks and military occupation ”.
In addition, Brazil requested that the United Nations Agency for Palestinian Refugees (Unrwa) will continue its activities in the region, noting that the International Court of Justice has already declared the Israeli presence illegal in Palestinian territories. The Israeli government prevented Unrwa’s performance, claiming that the agency supports terrorism. Israel’s Minister of Defense, Israel Katz, said he will not allow the return of the Palestinians who were expelled, intensifying the tension in the region.
The Palestinian Authority denounced Israeli actions as an attempt to attach the Palestinian territories, classifying them as a serious escalation of violence. Palestinian authorities consider these measures as a form of genocide and forced displacement, which is considered a crime under international law, as established by the Geneva Convention and by UN Security Council Resolution 242.
