An Arab-Islamic summit in Saudi Arabia on Monday called on the UN Security Council to issue a binding resolution enforcing an immediate cease-fire in Gaza and facilitating urgent access to humanitarian aid.
The call was part of the final statement of the Arab League-Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) summit held in the Saudi capital Riyadh to address escalating crises in Gaza and Lebanon, both facing a barrage of Israeli attacks.
The summit called for the UN Security Council to enact a “binding resolution for a cease-fire and immediate delivery of humanitarian aid to Gaza.” The statement also commended “the efforts of Egypt and Qatar, in cooperation with the US, toward reaching a swift and lasting cease-fire in Gaza,” and held Israel accountable for “backtracking on agreements.”
