Ambassador Dr. Sufian Al-Qudah, the Ministry's spokesperson, held “Israel” responsible for the attack on aid convoys, emphasizing that the “Israeli” government failed to fulfill its responsibilities, as the occupying force, and its allowance of such attacks, which constitute a violation of its legal obligations.

Ambassador Al-Qudah reiterated his call to the international community to fulfill its responsibilities and to take a clear international stance condemning the ongoing and continuous “Israeli” violations of international law and humanitarian law.

He stressed the need for “Israel” to adhere to these laws, ensure the passage of aid convoys, guarantee their entry into the Gaza Strip, and halt the settlers' attacks on them.
