The grave Israeli violations and crimes against the Palestinians for more than seven decades, witnessed by the whole world, but the problem lies in the lack of a real deterrent to it, and the continuation of Israel, the occupying power, to act as if it is above the law, and this is what made it increase its racist policies and theft of the Palestinian natural resources, especially water, which the report clarified, al-Mansouri said.
He stressed that Qatar will spare no effort in alleviating the suffering of the brotherly Palestinian people until they obtain all their legitimate rights and the establishment of a Palestinian state on the 1967 borders with East Jerusalem as its capital.
