NAM Urges Prompt Action against Israel’ Atrocities
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) called on the United Nations Security Council to take serious measures against the Israeli regime’s aggressive moves, which it said have endangered international peace and security.
Iran’s Deputy UN Ambassador Gholam Hossein Dehqani, who was addressing a Tuesday session of the UN Security Council meeting on behalf of the NAM members in New York, reiterated that the Israeli regime’s aggressive measures run counter to the international law and violate the Palestinians’ legitimate rights.
“Members of the NAM group call for intensified international efforts to restore the rights of Palestinians,” he noted.
“The Non-Aligned Movement thus calls for the (UN) Security Council’s serious attention to such aggressive measures, which have endangered the international peace and security,” Dehqani underlined.
He also censured the Tel Aviv regime for its continued “illegal policies and moves," such as constructing settlements, occupying the Palestinian territories, displacing the Palestinian residents, carrying out military operations against civilians as well as acts of extremism and blockading Gaza.
In the latest case of Israeli atrocities, Zionist extremists on Tuesday vandalized a mosque and a church in the occupied Palestinian territories in two separate incidents.
The first attack took in the town of Fureidis, in the northern part of the occupied territories, when the vandals sprayed slogans on the mosque’s walls reading that they must be closed.
In another attack, Israeli assailants vandalized a church on the shores of the Sea of Galilee. According to the church officials, the extremists damaged crosses there and attacked clergy.
