Saudi Arabia Friday announced its “categorical rejection” of calls for the forced displacement of the Palestinian people from Gaza and its condemnation of the continued targeting of defenseless civilians in the besieged strip. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a statement carried by the Saudi News Agency (SPA) that the Kingdom renewed its call on the international community to stop all forms of military escalation against civilians, prevent a humanitarian catastrophe and provide the necessary relief and medicine needs for the residents of Gaza. The ministry said that the Kingdom called for lifting the siege on Palesginians in Gaza, evacuating injured civilians, adhering to international law and norms and international humanitarian law and advancing the peace process to establish a Palestinian state on the June 1967 borders with East Jerusalem as its capital.
