Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) Secretary-General Jasem Mohamed Albudaiwi has expressed his strongest condemnation and denunciation of ongoing attacks launched by Israeli settlers, under the cover of Israeli occupation forces, against the defenseless Palestinian people, the latest of which were the heinous attacks that affected the village of Kafr Malik, east of Ramallah.

The secretary-general stressed on Friday that these repeated violations represent a dangerous escalation and a flagrant breach of international and humanitarian laws and are part of a systematic policy aimed at undermining the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people and imposing a de facto reality by force.

Albudaiwi renewed his call to the international community, particularly the UN Security Council, to assume its legal and humanitarian responsibilities, to act urgently to put an end to these violations, to provide the necessary international protection for the Palestinian people, and to support all efforts aimed at achieving a just and comprehensive peace, in line with resolutions of international legitimacy and the Arab Peace Initiative.
