Mahmoud Abbas Calls for Urgent UN Security Council Meeting to Stop Israeli Aggression
The Palestinian leader urges international intervention as the IDF escalates operations in the West Bank.
The President of the State of Palestine, Mahmoud Abbas, has called for an emergency meeting of the United Nations Security Council. His goal is to pressure Israel to halt its ongoing aggression against the Palestinian people.
What Is Happening in the West Bank?
While a ceasefire is in effect in Gaza, Israeli forces have shifted their focus to the West Bank, where the situation has sharply deteriorated.
The Israeli army is:
- Destroying entire residential neighborhoods in the refugee camps of Jenin and Tulkarm.
- Bombing homes and forcibly displacing residents in the city of Tammun and the Faraa refugee camp in Tubas province.
- Systematically demolishing infrastructure.
- Attacking Palestinians, resulting in dozens of deaths, hundreds of injuries, and thousands of arrests.
The Role of Israeli Settlers
Alongside IDF operations, violence by Israeli settlers has intensified, despite international law prohibiting their presence in the West Bank, which is recognized as occupied territory.
Settlers attack Palestinians, set fire to homes and property, and create conditions for mass displacement. These actions aim to change the demographic landscape of the West Bank and strip Palestinians of their land.
Palestine’s Demands to the International Community
Mahmoud Abbas has urged the UN Security Council to intervene and take responsibility for protecting the Palestinian people. He has called for pressure on Israel to stop its policy of forced displacement, which is classified under international law as a war crime and genocide.
He has also appealed to the U.S. administration to take immediate action and force Israel to stop the destruction and displacement of Palestinians to prevent further escalation.
What’s Next?
The escalation in the West Bank indicates that IDF operations are expanding beyond Gaza and becoming more widespread. Abbas claims that Israel is completing plans for the full expulsion of the Palestinian people, a strategy that began in Gaza.
However, some sources report that in December 2024 – January 2025, Abbas’s own forces carried out sieges and assaults in Jenin. The accuracy of these claims remains unclear.
The key question remains: will the international community take real action, or will this crisis be met with more statements and no consequences?
