OIC condemns Israeli attacks on Gaza hospital and settler violence in the West Bank

JEDDAH, November 12, 2026 (WAFA) – The General Secretariat of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) has strongly condemned escalating Israeli attacks in the Gaza Strip, most recently the bombing of Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, which killed and injured dozens of medical personnel and patients.

In a statement on Thursday, the OIC described the attack as a war crime requiring investigation and accountability under international criminal law.

The organization also condemned organized terrorism by extremist settler groups operating under the protection of Israeli occupation forces in the occupied West Bank. It cited the latest attack on the town of Atara, north of Ramallah, during which settlers burned vehicles, agricultural land and homes, while terrorizing Palestinian residents.

The OIC said these attacks constitute serious violations of international humanitarian law, the Geneva Conventions and relevant United Nations resolutions.

It held Israel fully responsible for the consequences of systematic crimes and renewed its call for the international community to intervene immediately to halt ongoing Israeli violations across the occupied Palestinian territory.
