Bahrain stresses need for de-escalation between Palestinians, Israelis

The Foreign Affairs Ministry said that “The Kingdom of Bahrain is closely following the developments taking place between Palestinian groups and Israeli forces, leading to an increase in violence and armed attacks that claimed the lives of a number of people and injured others. It stresses the need for de-escalation among all parties to preserve the lives of people,”

In a statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs warned that the continuation of violence will impede the efforts aimed at achieving a just and lasting peace in the Middle East, calling upon the international community to take its role in ending the armed conflict and protecting civilians in line with the international humanitarian law, in addition to supporting the peace process and establishing the Palestinian state according to the two-state solution and other international legitimacy resolutions.
