The Gulf Cooperation Council expressed its condemnation and denunciation in the strongest terms of the new Israeli crime of targeting a school housing displaced persons in Gaza City, which left many martyrs and wounded.
In a statement issued today, Mr. Jassim Mohammed Al-Badawi, Secretary-General of the Council, stressed that the continuous and violent attacks launched by the Israeli occupation forces against Palestinian civilians in Gaza and the rest of the Palestinian territories, and their direct targeting of shelters and camps for the displaced, are war crimes that highlight the dangerous criminal approach of the occupation forces, and constitute a flagrant violation of international and humanitarian laws and treaties, without any regard for legal, moral and humanitarian values.
The statement called on the international community to assume its responsibilities and take immediate and serious action to immediately cease fire, stop dangerous Israeli military operations, and hold accountable those responsible for these violations.
