2 Oct 2024 Regional situation result of decades of illegal acts by Israel: Sayyid Badr

Muscat – The sultanate is following up with great concern the developments of military escalation in the region, noting the seriousness of its repercussions while stressing the significance of adopting self-restraint as a means to spare the region and its people the risks of wars.

In a statement issued by the Foreign Ministry, Oman condemned the brutal aggression launched by Israel on Lebanese territories and the accompanying political assassinations that violate international norms and laws.

On X, H E Sayyid Badr al Busaidi, Foreign Minister, said, “The painful results of decades of illegal acts by Israel are playing out. Let’s be clear about where the root cause lies in this situation.”

Oman condemned Israel’s continued disregard of resolutions on international legitimacy that require Israel to withdraw completely from the occupied Palestinian and Arab territories.

‘The Israeli occupation, which has persisted for more than 70 years, is the main cause of continuous conflict and violence in the region,’ said the statement, noting that this occupation ‘hinders all real efforts to protect the peoples’ rights and aspirations for security and stability’.

The statement stressed the need to implement the will of the international community to grant the Palestinian people their right to self-determination and establish their own independent state along the borders of June 4, 1967, with East Jerusalem as its capital.
