Secretary General of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) Jasem Albudaiwi has renewed his call to the international community to assume its responsibilities and take urgent action to stop the grave Israeli aggression in Gaza Strip.
In a press release from the GCC General Secretariat, Albudaiwi stressed that one year since the start of military actions by Israeli occupation forces in Gaza, the humanitarian, security, and economic situation in the region has notably deteriorated.

According to SPA, he said, the situation necessitates immediate and decisive steps by the international community to put an end to the brutal Israeli crimes against the Palestinian people, de-escalate military operations and lift the blockade to ensure the provision of humanitarian aid and the opening of crossings, to alleviate the suffering of the Palestinian people.
Albudaiwi also emphasized the critical need to protect civilians, including those involved in relief and humanitarian work, who face severe dangers while fulfilling their vital roles. Furthermore, he reiterated that GCC countries consistently advocate for accountability for those responsible for crimes against humanity, for holding the Israeli government accountable for the violations committed by its forces against the defenseless Palestinian people.
He reaffirmed the GCC member states’ unwavering support for the Palestinian cause, and their commitment to the establishment of an independent Palestinian state within the June 4, 1967, borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital, in accordance with the Arab Peace Initiative and relevant United Nations resolutions.
Albudaiwi called for united regional and international endeavors to secure an immediate and lasting ceasefire in Gaza and to provide essential assistance to the Palestinian people, thus fostering stability and security in the region.
