The Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates (MOFAE) said that the Israeli occupation forces’ crack down on a ceremony honoring high school students in the town of Issawiya in occupied Jerusalem is “racist, fascist and immoral.” The Ministry condemned in the toughest terms the “racist and fascist” crimes of the Israeli occupation against Jerusalem, its sanctities and its citizens, and its historical identity, and held the Israeli government fully and directly responsible for the consequences and repercussions of its colonial practices. Furthermore, The ministry explained that “the Israeli occupation government reveals its racist fact on every occasion, daily, and what happened to the honouring ceremony is an immoral and fascist practice which reflects the depth of Israel’s and its official institutions’ denial of any form of Palestinian presence in occupied Jerusalem, including cultural and social events.” For further details, click here
