CAIRO, October 7, 2023 (WAFA) –  The Secretary-General of the Arab League, Ahmed Aboul Gheit, has called for an immediate cessation of the military operations in Gaza, warning that Israel's continued aggressive and extremist policies serves as a ticking time bomb that deprives the region of any genuine prospects for stability in the foreseeable future.

Aboul Gheit said the international community bears full responsibility for the current situation, given the absence of any meaningful response to the provocative policies of the Israeli right-wing.

These policies not only target the Islamic holy sites in Jerusalem, he stressed, but also undermine the two-state solution, seeking to thwart the establishment of an independent Palestinian state based on the pre-1967 borders.
