Ahlul Bayt News Agency (ABNA.ir), Syria and the Arab League on Monday denounced a new Zionist regime’s military expulsion policy that could see tens of thousands of people living in the occupied West Bank without permits deported or charged.
Syrian President Bashar al-Assad urged the international community to adopt "a clear stance on Israeli attempts to adopt a policy of ethnic cleansing in the West Bank and to expel Palestinians from their homeland," the official Syrian Arab News Agency reported.
Assad spoke after talks with visiting league chief Amr Mussa, who in remarks to reporters denounced Zionist regime over the move, saying it "places itself above international law."
For as long as this lasts, things will get worse and it will be more difficult to bring true peace to the region, Mussa said, adding that the Arab League council would hold an urgent meeting on Tuesday to discuss the issue.
Haaretz said amendments to an existing order on preventing infiltration could apply to Palestinians living in the West Bank without official ID cards issued by Zionist regime, as well as to Israelis and foreigners working in areas under limited Palestinian control.
