Arab Committee to Halt War on Gaza Concludes International Tour


The ministerial committee appointed by the extraordinary joint Arab-Islamic summit to take international action to halt the war on Gaza has concluded a global tour, including visits to China, Russia, Britain, and France.

Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates Ayman Safadi conveyed in a tweet on the social networking site “X” that the committee’s unified message emphasizes the immediate cessation of Israeli aggression against the besieged Gaza Strip.

Selective application of international law must cease, and sufficient humanitarian aid must reach all parts of Gaza, including its north.”

The committee stressed that ending the occupation based on a two-state solution is the sole path to achieving security.
