RAMALLAH, May 15, 2025 (WAFA) – The Arab League strongly condemned Israel, the occupying power, for refusing to comply with Security Council resolutions calling for an immediate ceasefire in the Gaza Strip and for the immediate and unconditional entry of humanitarian aid.
It also condemned Israel's refusal to comply with the International Court of Justice's orders for provisional measures to prevent the crime of genocide.
In a statement, on the 77th anniversary of the Nakba of the Palestinian people, the General Secretariat condemned Israel's aggressive war against the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, which has been perpetrated by Israel for more than 585 days.
The League affirmed that the suffering of the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip and throughout the occupied Palestinian territory requires all free people in the world to defend the most just and humane cause, according to all standards and laws.
The Palestinian people have been subjected to acts of genocide, killing, displacement, and expulsion—a process of genocide and liquidation that is shocking to humanity. Millions of Palestinians have been transformed into refugees and internally displaced persons, both inside and outside their homeland, in a form of the most severe oppression and injustice that no people on earth has faced for centuries.
It explained that this anniversary comes amid the ongoing brutal war waged by Israel against the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip for more than 19 months, which has claimed the lives of more than 200,000 people.
The entire two million residents of the Strip have been displaced, all necessities of life have been destroyed, humanitarian aid has been blocked, a deadly blockade has been imposed, and there has been a severe shortage of water, medicine, and food.
