The Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs has strongly condemned the Israeli escalation in the occupied Palestinian territories, the continued targeting of unarmed civilians and their shelters, and the killing of dozens, including the targeting of Dar Al-Arqam School that shelters the displaced in Gaza.

The Kingdom also strongly denounced on Friday the Israeli targeting and destruction of a warehouse owned by the Saudi Center for Culture and Heritage in the Morag area, east of Rafah, along with the medical supplies it stored, which were intended to assist the sick and injured in the Gaza Strip.

The ministry stated that the absence of international accountability mechanisms to deter Israeli violence and destruction has allowed the Israeli occupation authorities and forces to continue violating international law and international humanitarian law.

It added that the continued lack of international accountability mechanisms exacerbates Israeli aggression and violations, threatening regional and international security and stability.

The Kingdom reaffirmed the critical importance of Security Council members assuming their role in ending the tragedy experienced by the Palestinian people.
