GAZA CITY (Ma'an) -- The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine has welcomed Bolivia's recognition of an independent Palestinian state on the 1967 borders.

The PFLP said in a statement Saturday that the recognitions of Palestine amounts to "a show of support from the international community for the Palestinians and a rejection of the occupation."

Coupled with the US House's condemnation, they also reveal "US hypocrisy and double standards among Western nations. This demonstrates the need to restore unity."

The front called on Arab countries to "fight normalization of and sever ties with the occupation that is proceeding toward Judaizing the holy city of Jerusalem and the occupied territories."
