In his?statement,?Ambassador?Jaime Hermida Castillo?(Nicaragua),?the?Vice-Chair of the?Committee?on the Exercise of the Inalienable?Rights?of the?Palestinian?People,?said that Israel’s approval of 19?new settlements in the occupied West Bank, including East?Jerusalem?— including the re-establishment of settlements evacuated in?2005 — represents a serious setback. ?“These illegal, colonial actions openly seek to destroy the contiguity of the Palestinian land and foreclose the possibility of a viable Palestinian State,” he said.?The Vice-Chair?stressed?that?UNRWA “is a lifeline for millions of Palestine refugees”?and Israel’s?measures?targeting?the agency are “appalling”.?He?stated?that?“peace cannot coexist with annexation?and oppression, humanitarian access cannot coexist with obstruction, and?coexistence itself?cannot survive without justice and accountability”.?
