PLO: Israel revoking envoys' diplomatic status breaches international law

Hussein al-Sheikh, the secretary general of the executive committee of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), has condemned Israel's decision to revoke the diplomatic status of eight Norwegian diplomats who dealt with the Palestinian Authority.

In a statement on X, Sheikh warned the move "carries dangerous dimensions and has major repercussions”.

“The countries of the world, especially the European countries, must respond to this measure in kind, as it constitutes a violation and breach of international norms and laws,” he said.
