He stressed the importance of adhering to the protection of civilians and aid workers and ensuring the safety of humanitarian corridors for the delivery of essential aid.

Saudi Arabia urged the prioritization of the interests of the people and halting of the conflict to safeguard state institutions and lead Sudan to safety.

Saudi Arabia pointed to its hosting of the Jeddah talks between the parties involved in the Sudanese crisis and underscored its commitment to achieving a cessation of hostilities through political dialogue.

Furthermore, it called on the international community to commit to protecting Sudan and its people and working to restore security and stability, welcoming international efforts and initiatives aimed at achieving peace in the country.

The Arab Parliament strongly condemned the massacre committed by the Israeli occupation forces in Mawasi, Khan Younis, southwest Gaza Strip.
The massacre, which resulted in the deaths and injuries of dozens, is a continuation of the policy of genocide and ethnic cleansing against the Palestinian people, and a clear violation of international laws and charters, particularly international humanitarian law, SPA reported.
In a statement, the Arab Parliament stated that impunity and lack of deterrence further encourage the Israeli occupation forces to commit more crimes and massacres against innocent civilians.

It also said that the international community, the Security Council, and the US administration are fully responsible for these massacres, which are carried out on daily basis amid shameful international silence.
The Arab Parliament urged the international community, the Security Council, and the international community to assume their responsibilities and exert pressure on the occupation forces to halt the genocide and the brutal massacres committed against Palestinian civilians.
The parliament also asked that the Palestinian civilians be granted protection and that humanitarian and medical assistance be immediately allowed into Gaza Strip to alleviate the famine and tragic conditions there, as well as an immediate stop to the attacks on innocent civilians in Gaza Strip and the West Bank.
