Saudi Arabia warned on Saturday of the very serious repercussions of storming and targeting the city of Rafah in the Gaza Strip, which is the last resort for hundreds of thousands of civilians forced by the brutal Israeli aggression to flee.

In a statement, the Kingdom affirmed its categorical rejection and strong condemnation of their forcible deportation, and renewed its demand for an immediate ceasefire.

“This continued violation of international law and international humanitarian law confirms the need for an urgent meeting of the UN Security Council to prevent Israel from causing an imminent humanitarian disaster for which everyone who supports the aggression is responsible,” it said.
