Arab League Holds Extraordinary Session On Gaza Starvation Siege


(MENAFN- Kuwait News Agency (KUNA)) CAIRO, July 22 (KUNA) -- The Arab League held an extraordinary session at the level of permanent representatives on Tuesday to address the ongoing starvation siege imposed on the Gaza Strip.
The session, chaired by Jordan and requested by Palestine, focused on the catastrophic humanitarian situation in Gaza, particularly the Israeli occupation's deliberate starvation of Gaza's population.
Discussions also addressed Israeli occupation plans to establish a so-called "humanitarian city" in southern Gaza, described during the session as a closed, racially segregated detention zone, which is a continuation of forced mass displacement and genocide.
The session further highlighted the grave repercussions of the Israeli occupation's targeting of mosques and churches, particularly efforts to strip the Hebron Municipality of its authority over the Ibrahimi Mosque in favor of a so-called "religious council" affiliated with illegal settlements.
The Council also reviewed possible political, legal, and diplomatic measures at both the Arab and international levels to confront these serious violations.
Kuwait was represented at the session by its Permanent Representative to the Arab League, Ambassador Talal Al-Mutairi. (end)
