Here are some of the key points Alya Ahmed Saif al-Thani made in her speech:
- “The member states of the Gulf Cooperation Council condemn the Israeli agression.”
- “We consider that Israel is legally responsible for its continued agression, particularly against innocent civilians, thousands of whom have perished, mainly women and children, in flagrant violation of international law.”
- Israel’s “actions are meant to prevent the delivery of humanitarian assistance and is a policy to starve the Palestinian people.”
- “We regret the end of the truce and the increase in Israeli attacks, which has led to the displacement of millions and prevents the work of numerous humanitarian and UN organisations.”
- “We demand on behalf of the Arab group the immediate end of hostilities and a ceasefire, and the delivery of humanitarian assistance and basic necessities to the people of Gaza.”
