OIC Meeting LIVE: Organization Of Islamic Cooperation Holds Emergency Meeting | Haniyeh | Iran |N18G
Following the assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh, which has provoked widespread outrage, the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) is set to hold a meeting of its executive committee at the foreign ministers’ level on Wednesday.
The OIC General Secretariat will host the meeting at its headquarters in Jeddah, according to a statement by the OIC Secretariat, issued on Monday.
The meeting aims to address the ongoing Israeli actions against the Palestinian people and its violations of Iran’s sovereignty.
“In response to the ongoing atrocities committed by the Israeli occupation against the Palestinian people, particularly in the Gaza Strip, this meeting has been convened,” the statement read.
“To date, these actions have resulted in the deaths of over 40,000 individuals and injuries to more than 91,000 Palestinian citizens, most of whom are women and children,” it added.
The war has devastated civilian infrastructure, destroying 430,000 homes as well as hospitals, schools, mosques, and historical landmarks.
On Saturday, Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar said that Pakistan fully supported Iran’s call for an “extraordinary meeting” with the OIC after the killing of Hamas political chief Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran on July 31.
Also, Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan told a presser in Cairo that Turkiye would formally submit its declaration of intervention in South Africa’s genocide case against Israel at the ICJ on Wednesday.
