Arab League to hold urgent talks on Israeli actions in Gaza

The Arab League will convene an extraordinary session on Sunday to discuss how to confront Israel’s occupation of Palestine, Wafa news agency has reported.

Palestine’s envoy to the Arab League, Muhannad al Aklouk, said the meeting comes “in light of the Israeli decision to reoccupy the Gaza Strip and fully control it and the resulting forced displacement of the Palestinian people inside and outside the Strip.”

According to Wafa, the talks will focus on Arab and international mechanisms to challenge Israeli abuses, stop them from continuing, and hold those responsible accountable before international courts.
