(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - Secretary General of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation Dr. Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu has urged the world community to immediately intervene to halt the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip.
He strongly condemned in a statement on Sunday the “ferocious attacks” launched by the Israeli occupation forces on the besieged Strip.
Ihsanoglu said that the “cruel crime” that left women and children wounded among other civilians was “unjustified escalation” that would lead to more tension and instability in the region other than being in violation of the international law.
The OIC top official asked the international community to punish Israel for its crimes and to demand an end to the siege on the coastal enclave.
