Palestine - October 06, 2024

The construction of an extended section of a China-funded highway in Palestine started on Sunday, with an inauguration ceremony held in Ramallah, a city in the West Bank.

The ceremony was attended by the head of the Office of China to Palestine Zeng Jixin, the representative of Palestine's prime minister, and other officials.

The current conflict between Palestine and Israel, which has lasted for a year, has reduced the Palestinian people into heavy sufferings, said Zeng.

China has provided batches of cash and emergency humanitarian aid to Gaza, and will continue providing assistance within its capacity to support Palestinian economic development and improve its people's livelihood, Zeng said.

The Palestinian side expressed their heartfelt gratitude to China for its timely assistance and expressed their willingness to work with China to ensure the swift completion of the project for the benefit of local residents.

Ramallah is considered the political and economic hub for the Palestinian Authority and developing economy.
