“First of all, Japan condemns the terrorist act of the brutal slaying of an Israeli soldier by an extremist group. Terrorism in any form, be it against a Jew or a Palestinian, must be neither tolerated nor condoned. It is utterly deplorable, however, that following this incident the Israeli Government decided on 16 December to deport more than 400 Palestinians from the Israeli-occupied West Bank and Gaza Strip and deported the majority of them to Lebanon the following day. This deportation was very sudden and involved a large number of people. Such a step is a clear violation of the provisions of international law concerning the treatment of residents in an occupied area. Japan does not tolerate such action and demands the immediate return to the occupied territories of all those deported.”
