1. “We strongly condemn any type of Violence and call on Hamas and the other groups to put an end to their instigation and related operations. Finally, we urge all parties involved to work together to open the doors of negotiation and to avoid acts of provocation and inflammatory rhetoric. We are convinced that the work of international organizations is essential to alleviate and reduce the risks of violence and to seek a solution to the current unfortunate situation.”

2. “It is particularly disconcerting that the work of human rights organizations has been restricted through the reduction of civic space, especially in Gaza, where the humanitarian situation remains critical and where their work is therefore indispensable. The Dominican Republic continues to defend the existing international consensus that the only way forward for the Palestinians and Israelis is to negotiate a two-State solution, with negotiated borders based on the 1967 lines. We reiterate that the main objective should be the restoration of a political horizon for the resumption of a meaningful peace process that puts people at its centre and is consistent with international law. Regarding the Palestinian attacks against Israel, the Dominican Republic maintains its position.”

3. “On another note, in 2016 the Security Council adopted resolution 2334 (2016), which asks all parties to put an end to territorial claims, to respect sovereignty and to liberate the occupied territories. Unfortunately, since then, the situation has not changed. The reality is that the occupation has expanded illegally without any consequences, thus preventing peace from drawing nearer. We note with concern the large increase in demolitions in the West Bank, particularly in East Jerusalem. Those demolitions create a coercive environment for the inhabitants, which could lead to the forced relocation of the population that is being affected.”

4. “Ms. Blandino de Los Santos (Dominican Republic) (spoke in Spanish): My delegation would also like to thank Ms. Rosemary DiCarlo for her informative briefing. The Dominican Republic acknowledges the collective effort of the international community to support the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) at its annual international donor conference, held on 25 June in New York City. Representatives of States and institutions unanimously praised the Agency's role in preserving the rights and dignity ofPalestinian refugees. We applaud UNRWA staff for the commitment to offer support for the human development of 5.4 million Palestinian refugees in the Near East.”
