Arab Nations Criticize Israel Over E1
Eight foreign ministers—those of Egypt, Qatar, Jordan, the UAE, Indonesia, Pakistan, Turkey, and Saudi Arabia—confirmed their opposition to the "E1" plan, which aims to establish settlement activities east of East Jerusalem. They emphasized that this plan represents a blatant escalation threatening the geographical continuity between the West Bank and Jerusalem, and undermines the establishment of an independent Palestinian state on the 1967 borders with East Jerusalem as its capital. They also regarded settlement expansion and violence by settlers, supported by the occupation authorities, as violations of international law, posing a threat to regional and international security. They called for an immediate halt to the plan and the cancellation of all settlement measures, and urged the Security Council to take actions including accountability and sanctions against those responsible for illegal activities.
