The Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) has said it will hold next week an extraordinary meeting of its Council of Foreign Ministers to discuss the ongoing Israeli aggression against the Palestinian people.

The session will be held at the headquarters of its General Secretariat in Jeddah on March 5.

OIC Secretary-General Hissein Brahim Taha is expected to address the opening session, which will be preceded by a preparatory senior officials' meeting (SOM) on Monday to discuss and adopt the draft agenda and work program and consider the draft resolution before submitting it to the Council of Foreign Ministers the following day.

On October 11, Saudi Arabia hosted the extraordinary Joint Arab and Islamic Summit in Riyadh, organized by the OIC and the Arab League. The conference adopted several decisions, in particular assigning a committee of foreign ministers of member states to tour world capitals and international organizations in an effort to stop the Israeli aggression against the Palestinian people.

As part of its continued efforts to stop the brutal Israeli aggression since October 7, the OIC held an open-ended Executive Committee extraordinary meeting at the level of foreign ministers at its headquarters on October 18.
