Riyadh condemns Netanyahu’s comments on Palestinians’ displacement

RIYADH, Feb. 09 (YPA) – Saudi Arabia’s Foreign Ministry has issued a statement rejecting Netanyahu’s suggestion and thanking the Arab countries for their condemnation of the Israeli prime minister’s comments.

The ministry said it rejected statements “that aim to divert attention from the continuous crimes committed by the Israeli occupation against the Palestinian brothers in Gaza, including the ethnic cleansing they are subjected to”.

It added, “The kingdom affirms that the Palestinian people have a right to their land, and they are not intruders or immigrants to it who can be expelled whenever the brutal Israeli occupation wishes.”
