Eight Arab Nations Condemn Israel's E1 Plan
The Islamic and Arab countries, led by Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Qatar, Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, Indonesia, Pakistan, and Turkey, have called for a halt to the Israeli settlement plan "E1" east of occupied Jerusalem. They considered it a serious escalation that threatens the prospects of establishing an independent Palestinian state alongside Israel based on the 1967 borders. They affirmed that this plan extends to settlement expansion and the growth of settlements, which undermines the territorial continuity between the West Bank and East Jerusalem and jeopardizes the two-state solution. They called for urgent international measures to halt expansion and settlement activities, hold those responsible accountable, and preserve Palestinian rights and regional security. The statement emphasized that continuing with this plan increases tensions and threatens peace in the region.
