Extraordinary Arab and Islamic Summit in Riyadh | Arab News |
Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman renewed the Kingdom's objections to Israeli attacks in Gaza and violations of Lebanon's sovereignty.
In his opening statement at an extraordinary Arab and Islamic summit, hosted by Riyadh, he denounced the obstruction of aid efforts by humanitarian agencies in Gaza and rejected any diminishing of the role of the Palestinian Authority.
"The Kingdom condemns the obstruction of the relief efforts of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) in the Near East in Palestinian territories, as well as the obstruction of the work of humanitarian organizations providing aid to the Palestinian people," the crown prince said.
Israel formally notified the UN last week of its decision to sever ties with UNRWA after Israeli politicians voted in favor of the move on Oct. 28.
The international community must "immediately halt the Israeli actions against our brothers in Palestine and Lebanon", the crown prince said, describing Israel's campaign in Gaza as "genocide."
The United States and Israel have been on a collision course with the Islamic World ever since the 9/11 attacks.

Crown Prince Salman continued: "We condemn the Israeli military operations that have targeted Lebanese territories and we reject anything that threatens Lebanon's stability and safety as well as anything that violates its territorial integrity.
"Israel's continued criminal actions against innocent people, its violation of the sanctity of Al-Aqsa Mosque, and its undermining of the Palestinian Authority's pivotal role in all Palestinian territories will hinder efforts to secure the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people and establish regional peace."

The crown prince also condemned attacks against Iran, saying that the international community should put pressure on Israel to respect "the sovereignty of the Islamic Republic of Iran" and cease all hostile actions against its territories.
He said "we stand with our brothers in Palestine and Lebanon," and reiterated that Palestine qualifies for full membership in the UN, as he stressed the necessity of establishing a Palestinian state.
"We launched a global initiative to support the two-state solution," he added, referring to a call by Saudi authorities for more peace-loving countries to formally recognize a Palestinian state, through the UN General Assembly.
