Saudi Arabia strongly condemned on Thursday Israel’s targeting of the Al-Razi United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) school in the Nuseirat refugee camp and its attack on the Attar area in Khan Younis in Gaza.

In a statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said the attacks were part of the Israeli war machine's series of violations against defenseless civilians.

The Kingdom reiterated its firm rejection of the ongoing Israeli genocidal crimes, calling for an immediate ceasefire, ensuring the protection of civilians, humanitarian facilities, and those working in them.

“The Kingdom holds the Israeli forces fully responsible for their continued breach of all international humanitarian and legal norms,” said the statement.

“Furthermore, the Kingdom emphasized the legal, humanitarian, and moral responsibility placed on the international community to activate mechanisms of international accountability and put an end to these ongoing violations of international law and legitimate resolutions by Israeli forces.”

Saudi Arabia warned that “the persistent failure to take these measures not only reflects the weakness and impotence of international institutions but could also lead to further consequences, undermining the foundations and credibility of international legitimacy, as well as our ability to safeguard regional and global security and stability in the future.”
