Palestine’s envoy to the United Nations has called on the international community to stop Israel’s recent moves to cement control over the occupied West Bank, which he said amounts to “the annexation of the land of the Palestinian people”.
Flanked by representatives of Arab and Muslim-majority nations, Ambassador Riyad Mansour told reporters at the UN’s headquarters in New York on Tuesday that Palestinians are “mobilising” diplomatically against the “illegal” Israeli effort.
