Statement on the Targeting of Jabalia Camp

Makkah:

The Muslim World League condemns in the strongest terms the Israeli occupation army's targeting of the Jabalia camp in the besieged Gaza Strip, resulting in a tragic loss of life. 

In a statement released by the General Secretariat of the MWL, His Excellency Sheikh Dr. Mohammed bin Abdulkarim Al-Issa, Secretary-General of the MWL and Chairman of the Organization of Muslim Scholars, denounced this grave escalation that led to the death of several innocent civilians. His Excellency calls on the international community to uphold its duty to protect civilians from such egregious collective punishment, which stands as a flagrant violation of international laws and norms. He emphasizes the importance of not overlooking calls and warnings and urges the international community to take decisive action. Dr. Al-Issa calls for an immediate halt of these acts of mass destruction, which shake every unwavering conscience. His appeal aligns with the resolution of the United Nations General Assembly dated October 27, 2023, which emphasizes the protection of innocent civilians and the upholding of international humanitarian law.
