The voices condemning Israel's illegal acts are growing louder in many countries around the world.

Recently, foreign ministers of 14 countries including Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Jordan, Lebanon, Türkiye, Pakistan and Palestine issued a joint statement denouncing Israel for opening its "embassy" in Somaliland, a region separated from Somalia, and strongly rejecting any unilateral measure to undermine Somalia’s territorial reunification or infringe upon the sovereignty of the country.

Leaders of the UK, France, Germany, Italy, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Norway, the Netherlands and other Western countries sent a warning to Israel against the expansion of the Jewish settlements in the West Bank under its occupation.

They expressed support for the two-state solution of Israel and Palestine, asserting that Israel’s construction of the settlements in the West Bank is a wanton violation of international law.

The Palestinian presidential office recently issued a statement decrying Israel for trying to build more than 2 100 Jewish dwelling houses in the West Bank.

Israel's provocative policy will plunge the region into a vicious cycle of violence and escalation of conflict, the statement said, stressing that the Israeli authorities should be held wholly responsible for the consequences to be entailed by it.

The Chinese deputy permanent representative to the United Nations said that the international community should redress by action the history of unfairness suffered by the Palestinian people, adding that Israel ought to lend an ear to the strong voice of the international community, stop the building of settlements at once and put an end to its illegal occupation.

As is known, Israel has intensified its moves for the occupation of Palestine stage by stage, including its approval of the construction of more than 100 new settlements in the West Bank and its building of over 3 400 Jewish houses in East Al-Quds in the past four years alone.
