JAKARTA - The Indonesian Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Kemlu RI) voiced its concern over the increase in the escalation of the conflict between Palestine and Israel.

"Indonesia is very concerned about the increasing escalation of the conflict between Palestine and Israel," said a statement from the Indonesian Ministry of Foreign Affairs on his official platform X account on Sunday, quoted by Antara.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs also requested that acts of violence be stopped immediately in order to avoid the increasing number of human casualties. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs also urged a bit of a root of the conflict, namely the occupation of Palestinian territory by Israel must be resolved, according to the parameters agreed by the United Nations. Conflict between Palestine and Israel in the Gaza Strip region erupted following tensions that occurred after the closure of entrances and exits in the region some time earlier.

In the conflict, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu has declared an open war against Palestine.

Meanwhile, the Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates on Saturday (7/10) said ending Israel's occupation of Palestinian territory was the only guarantee of peace, security and stability in the region, quoted from the Palestinian news agency WAFA.

In a statement, the ministry stated it had repeatedly warned that if the Israeli-Palestinian conflict was not resolved and the Palestinian people were not given the right to self-determine, then there would be serious consequences.

"We have also warned of the consequences of provocations and attacks carried out daily, continued terrorism by Israeli settlers and occupation forces, as well as raids on Al Aqsa Mosques and Christian and Islamic holy sites," he wrote.

The statement was made in response to current conditions when Israel was launching an attack on the Gaza Strip. The attack was carried out in retaliation for a series of rockets launched by Palestinian militant forces into Israeli territory on Saturday morning local time.
