President Mahmoud Abbas had a telephone call this evening with the Prime Minister of the Netherlands, Mark Rutte, during which the two discussed the challenging developments in Palestine and explored avenues for an immediate halt to Israeli aggression against the Palestinian people.

During the call, President Abbas emphasized the critical need to provide protection for the Palestinian population, calling for the urgent opening of humanitarian corridors to the Gaza Strip.

He stressed the importance of delivering essential supplies, medical items, as well as ensuring the provision of water, electricity, and fuel to the Palestinian population of Gaza.

President Abbas expressed his gratitude to the Dutch Prime Minister for the aid already extended by his country and the humanitarian assistance to be provided during these difficult times.

He urged all relevant parties to exert pressure on Israel to prevent extremist settlers from attacking Palestinian cities, villages, and refugee camps, demanding measures to prevent extremists from invading Christian and Islamic holy sites in Jerusalem.

The President reiterated his complete rejection of the displacement of the Palestinian people from the Gaza Strip, emphasizing that such an action would be a tragedy that Palestinians will never be allowed.
