Abdullah II delved into the devastating situation in Gaza confirming the serious consequences on the generation that have experienced injustice, genocide, murder, starvation, and bombardment.
“The situation in Gaza will not give the region and the world stability, but rather will bring more violence and conflict,” Abdullah II added.
The Palestinian cause is the primary focus of the 33rd Arab Summit, held today in the Bahraini capital, Manama. The Arab Leaders have called on the international community to put an end to the unbearable circumstance in Gaza under the Israeli aggression.
The Jordanian King stressed that the world should bear its moral and humanitarian responsibility to end the conflict that has been going on for more than seven decades.”
Furthermore, he highlighted the necessity to constantly support UNRWA in carrying out its humanitarian role in the Strip.
The King has flatly refused the displacement of the Palestinians from their own lands and the separation between the West Bank and Gaza Strip.
