The General Secretariat of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), strongly condemned the continuation of the Israeli military aggression against the Gaza Strip, which has killed treacherously 25 martyrs and wounded 76 Palestinian citizens, in addition to the destruction of several residential buildings during the past two days. OIC in a statement considered this barbaric military aggression a heinous crime and a flagrant violation of the international law and international humanitarian law. The OIC held Israel, the occupying power, fully responsible for the consequences of the continuation and escalation of its aggression and the war crimes it is committing against the Palestinian people, which constitute a threat to security, peace, and stability in the entire region. It called the International Criminal Court to accelerate its procedures to prosecute those responsible for war crimes. It also renewed its call on the international community to shoulder its responsibilities and intervene urgently to stop this continuous Israeli aggression, provide international protection for the Palestinian people, and compel Israel to respect its obligations under international law.
