UAE and allies express Gaza concern
Representing Egypt, Qatar, Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, Indonesia, Pakistan, Turkey, and Saudi Arabia, the countries expressed their deep concern during their meeting in New York on the margins of the United Nations General Assembly regarding the ongoing humanitarian suffering in Gaza. They emphasized the importance of Israel fulfilling its commitments under a comprehensive plan, which includes delivering aid, rehabilitating infrastructure, and halting all measures that alter the geographical and demographic character of the occupied Palestinian territories. They called for a stop to settlement expansion, home demolitions, and the displacement of Palestinians. They also rejected any attempts to expel the Palestinian people or alter the legal and historical status of the holy sites in Jerusalem. Furthermore, they affirmed that the implementation of the peace plan should contribute to the unification of the West Bank and Gaza Strip to establish a sovereign Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital, within the framework of a two-state solution. They praised the United States for its role in supporting the plan and stressed the need for continued international cooperation to achieve lasting peace in the region.
