Amb. Al-Hayen To ILO: Kuwaiti Support To Palestinian Cause Unwavering
(MENAFN- Kuwait News Agency (KUNA))
VIENNA, June 6 (KUNA) -- The State of Kuwait's support to the just Palestinian cause is firm and unwavering, said a Kuwaiti diplomat to an international conference on Thursday.
Speaking to the 112nd the International labor Organization's (ILO) conference, Kuwait's Permanent Representative to the United Nations Office and other International Organizations in Geneva Ambassador Naser Al-Hayen told a special session on labor in occupied Arab lands that the current disastrous situation in the Gaza Strip should be addressed promptly to avoid further bloodshed.
The forced displacement of millions of Palestinians is heinous crime, which the Israeli occupation was solely responsible of, affirmed the Kuwaiti diplomat who did not fail to mention the apocalyptic scenes of destroyed infrastructures throughout Gaza.
The ILO's Impact of the war in Gaza on the labor market and livelihoods in the Occupied Palestinian Territory clearly showed the catastrophic humanitarian situation, which touched all Palestinians specifically laborers there, he added.
He revealed that the report suggested that over 200,000 Palestinians have lost their jobs, adding to the unending crimes committed by the Israeli occupiers.
Ambassador Al-Hayed insisted that the Israeli occupation had crossed all redlines and also violated all international laws and norms including the ILO's constitution.
He pointed out that preventing laborers from across occupied territories to move freely and seek work was another criminal act carried out by the Israeli aggressors.
While the world celebrated the International Workers' Day back on May 1, the occasion is marred by Israel's brutalization of Palestinian laborers causing them to lose job security, stability, and peace, affirmed Ambassador Al-Hayen.
The Kuwaiti diplomat concluded with an affirmation that the State of Kuwait welcomed article 177 of the ILO report that called for an immediate halt of the unjust war in the Gaza Strip and the end of occupation. (end)
