TEHRAN, Feb. 12 (MNA) – The Palestinian Islamic Jihad movement has emphasized that the Israeli regime's attack on Rafah in Gaza is a threat to the security of the Arab world and the Islamic ummah.

According to a report by the local Palestinian Shahab News Agency on Monday, the  Palestinian Islamic Jihad movement said in a statement that the Zionist regime's insistence on its crimes, especially its overnight attacks on Rafah, shows the regime is focused on committing genocide against the Palestinian nation.

This insistence bear testimony to the fact that the Zionist cabinet has violated all international treaties and laws, especially those of the International Court of Justice (ICJ), the United Nations and the international community, it added.

These crimes undoubtedly show the fact that the Nazi cabinet and the criminal Zionist regime do not care about the world's public opinion, the statement said.

It also warned the entire world, especially the Arab countries, that the attack on Rafah had been launched to forcibly displace the Palestinian people from their land and to destroy the Palestinian cause.

This is a threat to the security of the Arab world and the Islamic ummah, the Palestinian movement reiterated.
