CAIRO: Ahmed Aboul Gheit, Secretary General of the Arab League, strongly condemned Israel’s military operation in the West Bank, which resulted in the deaths of more than eleven people. It also involved a comprehensive siege on major cities and extensive areas in the region.
In a statement issued today, Aboul Gheit said that Israel’s incursions, violent attacks, and killings in northern West Bank cities, as well as the destruction of infrastructure and the siege of hospitals, are part of a troubling trend to subjugate the Palestinian people.
He added that this trend cannot be separated from the dangerous and totally unacceptable statements made by extremist ministers in the Israeli government about the Al-Aqsa Mosque.
The Secretary-General of the Arab League accused Israel of conducting a war of extermination against Palestinians, asserting that the military operations in the West Bank are unrelated to the October 7 attacks.
He emphasised that the objective is to render life unbearable for Palestinians in
both the West Bank and Gaza Strip, employing ongoing violence as a means of intimidation and advancing plans for displacement and the eradication of their cause.
Aboul Gheit stressed the urgency for the international community to take action against escalating tensions in the region, warning that the current situation is dangerously close to a crisis that could lead to further conflict and instability.
