Settlement activities are "a flagrant and gross
violation of the international law and
UN Security Council Resolution 2334," said official
spokesman of the ministry Sinan Majali.
He reiterated that the entire settlement policy is a violation of international
law that undermines efforts to achieve peace and the chances of a two-state
solution based on international legitimacy resolutions.
Majali stressed that
unilateral actions by Israel, the occupying power,
including expansion of settlements, confiscation of land and eviction of
Palestinians are illegal, unacceptable and condemned actions that are in
serious
violation of the international humanitarian law.
