The Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) has strongly condemned the Israeli military attack against Iran describing it as a flagrant violation of its sovereignty and international law, the Saudi Press Agency said on Sunday.
In a press release, the OIC reaffirmed its stance against any escalation that could further destabilize the region, calling on the international community and influential actors to work toward reducing tensions and putting an end to the cycle of violence.
OIC reiterated its firm position and called for an immediate and urgent halt to the Israeli aggression in Gaza, the West Bank, and Lebanon.
On Saturday, Israeli warplanes hit several military targets in Iran in retaliation for an Iranian ballistic missile attack on Israel earlier this month.
