RIYADH -UNS/AFP :Saudi Arabia’s de facto ruler has called for immediate ceasefires in Gaza and Lebanon at a joint Arab League and Organisation of Islamic Cooperation summit, AFP reports.
Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman said the international community must “immediately halt the Israeli actions against our brothers in Palestine and Lebanon”, condemning Israel’s campaign in Gaza as “genocide”.
Addressing the summit, the premier said that the atrocities committed against the Palestinians have rightfully been labelled as genocide, not only by the media but by the International Court of Justice.
“With each passing day, every moral court has been flagrantly violated by Israel yet the killing and destruction continued with no end in sight,” he said, asking for how long will this annihilation be ignored.
“Israel has been emboldened by the world’s indifference and inaction.”
