Several international organizations, human rights groups, academics, and researchers from 45 countries called for imposing sanctions on the Israeli occupation and its apartheid regime.
In a statement on the occasion of International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, Ramzi Odeh, Secretary-General of the International Academic Campaign against Occupation and Apartheid, said that 67 international organizations and human rights networks, in addition to 279 academics and researchers from 45 countries urged the United Nations and Western countries to impose sanctions on the occupying power, Israel, for its occupation of the Palestinian land and the imposition of an apartheid regime.
Odeh noted that the move expresses the global conscience in support of the just demands of the Palestinian people, denouncing the Western countries’ double standards regarding the Palestinian issue compared to the Ukrainian crisis.
He indicated that this statement will be submitted to the meeting of the Human Rights Council at its 49th session, which will address the issue of the Israeli occupation and its continuous attacks on the Palestinian people, and will also be sent to the representatives of the European Union, and to embassies and representative offices operating in Palestine.
