OIC Condemns Israeli Occupation’s Targeting of School for Displaced Persons in Gaza City

The Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) strongly condemned the continued crimes committed by the Israeli occupation in the Gaza Strip, most recently the shelling of a school sheltering displaced persons, which martyred seven Palestinians and injured dozens of innocent civilians, in a flagrant violation of international humanitarian law.
 The OIC renewed its call on the international community, particularly the UN Security Council, to assume its responsibilities by putting an end to all Israeli crimes and violations, securing a comprehensive and permanent ceasefire, ensuring sufficient and unhindered delivery of humanitarian assistance, and guaranteeing the withdrawal of Israeli occupation forces from the Gaza Strip.
 It further emphasized the need to activate international criminal justice mechanisms to pursue and hold accountable all Israeli officials involved in committing these grave crimes and to ensure that they do not evade punishment.
