The authorities, also called for a real and effective legal and diplomatic measures against Israel, the occupying Power, similar to what had been taken in other parts of the world.
In a statement in Abuja, the Embassy of the State of Palestine in Nigerian, said, it’s long overdue for the international community to act and take tangible measures to put an end to the shameful silence and constant inaction.
Accordingly to the statement, “The Israeli Occupation Forces launched a wide and extensive brutal aggression in Jenin refugee camp in the early hours of Monday, Fourth of July, 2023. The military attacks started by air strikes on many homes and other civilian properties on the densely populated Palestine refugee camp by a fully armed ground forces who stormed the refugee camp.
