Israel must immediately end the persecution and repression against the Palestinian people, intensified in the last weeks with the threat of eviction against the residents of Sheikh Jarrah, a Palestinian neighbourhood in Israeli-occupied Jerusalem.
“Israel has inflicted brutal violence against Palestinians in Jerusalem who are resisting their forced dispossession so settlers can take their place. This is part of Israel’s ongoing attempts to erase the Palestinian presence from the city,” said
Manu Pineda, the chair of the European Parliament Delegation for Relations with Palestine.
“To make things worse, Israel is doubling down on its collective punishment of the besieged Gaza Strip with a ruthless bombing campaign, supported by European and American arms. Children were the first casualties of this barbarity. The EU must demand an immediate cease-fire before more lives are lost.”
Sinn Féin MEP says “Recognition of Palestinian Persecution must result in real action”
Sinn Féin MEP Chris MacManus has welcomed a recently released report by the international NGO Human Rights Watch. The report called ‘A Threshold Crossed’ labelled Israel an apartheid state and accuses it of systematic persecution of the Palestinian people, which are accepted as crimes against humanity.
MacManus, a member of European Parliament Delegation to Palestine, commented:
“The comprehensive nature of this new report must be recognised. It is not a 2-page press statement, but a 224-page document with over 800 references, from an internationally recognised human rights organisation.”
