OIC convenes 23rd foreign ministers' session
The Organization of Islamic Cooperation held an extraordinary session in Jeddah, chaired by Saudi Arabia, to discuss the situation in Palestine and Jerusalem. It reaffirmed that the Palestinian cause and Jerusalem are the core concerns of the Islamic Ummah, with a focus on rejecting all attempts to alter the legal and historical status of the city. The session called for an end to the illegal Israeli settlements, which are considered a crime under international law. The council condemned the ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza and regarded the expansionist settlement plans as a threat to regional security. It also urged the imposition of international sanctions on the Israeli occupation. Additionally, it emphasized the need to protect the holy sites and the city of Jerusalem from any actions that threaten its identity, and called on the international community to assume its responsibilities in safeguarding the Palestinian people and supporting their right to an independent state with Jerusalem as its capital, based on the borders of 1967.
