Secretary General of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) Jasem Mohamed Albudaiwi has strongly condemned the brutal bombardment by the Israeli occupation forces of the Al-Fakhura school in Jabalia refugee camp, which shelters thousands of displaced people.
The Secretary-General also condemned the repeated and ongoing brutal attacks by Israel on hospitals and refugee camps in the Gaza Strip, in a clear and direct violation by the Israeli occupation of international humanitarian law.

He also reiterated the GCC's firm position calling for an end to the aggression on the Gaza Strip, and providing protection for Palestinian and international institutions that provide relief and basic services to citizens, SPA reported.

Albudaiwi called on the international community to urgently fulfill its responsibilities to stop the brutal Israeli acts and work towards a political solution to the crisis.
