Saudi Arabia has condemned in the strongest terms the “inhumane” Israeli airstrike on Jabalia camp in the Gaza Strip.

"The Kingdom expresses its condemnation and complete rejection of the Israeli occupation forces’ repeated targeting of densely populated areas,” the Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a statement.

It described such attacks as a flagrant violation of international laws and international humanitarian law.

It said the international community had “failed to pressure the occupation government to accept an immediate ... ceasefire, and a humanitarian truce in line with the resolution of the United Nations General Assembly issued with an overwhelming majority last Friday."

The Kingdom affirmed that “the dangerous humanitarian conditions resulting from the continuous escalation cannot be justified at all, and that sparing blood, protecting civilians, and stopping military operations are urgent priorities for which any procrastination or disruption cannot be accepted.”

“Failure to immediately adhere to them will inevitably lead to a humanitarian catastrophe for which the Israeli occupation and the international community bear responsibility,” the statement added.

He noted that advanced technologies are making it easier for criminal networks to smuggle weapons and fuel terrorism and extremism, especially in unstable regions.
The minister called for stronger collaboration, better strategies, and capacity-building to tackle these threats.
He also said that the GCC interior ministers’ meeting strengthens joint security efforts to tackle new challenges, supporting regional stability and development.
In a post on X, Prince Abdulaziz affirmed Saudi Arabia’s commitment to boosting communication, coordination, and integration among Gulf nations, particularly in security, to protect progress and ensure a brighter future.
