New York: HE Permanent Representative of the State of Qatar to the United Nations Sheikha Alya Ahmed bin Saif Al-Thani, has participated in a press briefing held by Arab countries at the UN headquarters, highlighting Israeli occupation's illegal practices in the West Bank.

The group strongly condemned Israel's recent decision to designate lands in the occupied West Bank as so-called "state lands" and to begin large-scale procedures for land registration and settlement in the occupied West Bank.

They added the move is illegal, constitutes a dangerous escalation, and aims to accelerate unlawful settlement activity, while asserting Israel's illegal sovereignty over the occupied Palestinian territories.

Arab countries called on the international community to assume its responsibilities and take clear and decisive steps to stop these violations, ensure respect for international law, and safeguard the inalienable rights of the Palestinian people, foremost among them their right to self-determination, the end the occupation, and the establishment of their independent and sovereign state on the June 4, 1967 lines, with East Jerusalem as its capital.
