The US administration's step to label Israeli settlement products as “Made in Israel” is a "war crime and a violation of all international laws and conventions," the Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates said in a statement.

"Such a decision attempts to legitimize settlement-manufactured goods as well as the theft of Palestinian land and products," said the Foreign Ministry, pointing out that this encourages Israel to commit more crimes against the Palestinians.

It stressed that Palestine will remain a single geographical unit including the Gaza Strip, the West Bank, and Jerusalem, affirming that it will face any attempts to falsify the origin of goods manufactured in the illegal settlements built on the occupied Palestinian land, which violates the rules of international law, including the UN Security Council Resolution 2334.

"The outgoing US administration has used to lie to the American citizens to make them complicit in the theft of the natural resources and capabilities of the Palestinian people," the ministry added.

Moreover, it affirmed that it will work with all parties, institutions, and international courts to hold accountable all those who violate Palestinian rights.

"All the decisions taken by the current US administration are ideological decisions that are hostile to the Palestinian people and rights and are based on an ideology hostile to international law and the UN resolutions," it underscored.

The Ministry urged the international community and free peoples, including the American people, to follow those who boycott the goods of Israeli settlements, as they are a clear violation of the rules of international law.
