IQNA – The Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) has called for urgent international support to rebuild Gaza while firmly rejecting the forced displacement of Palestinians.

 

At an extraordinary foreign ministers meeting in Saudi Arabia on Friday, the OIC endorsed an Arab League-backed reconstruction plan and urged swift financial and political mobilization to aid recovery efforts.

OIC Secretary-General Hussein Ibrahim Taha emphasized the group’s commitment to the Palestinian people’s right to remain on their land and highlighted the significance of the reconstruction plan adopted at a March 4 Arab League summit in Cairo.

"This plan represents a shared and realistic vision within an integrated political and economic framework aimed at achieving a two-state solution," said Taha and he urged swift financial and political mobilization for implementation.

Taha warned of "Israel’s unacceptable actions and the dangers of its attempts to eliminate the Palestinian refugee issue," stressing that the meeting took place amid continued occupation, annexation efforts and forced displacement.

He demanded intensified efforts to establish a sustainable ceasefire in Gaza, full withdrawal of Israeli forces, unhindered humanitarian aid delivery and the return of displaced Palestinians to their homes.

The meeting formally adopted Egypt’s proposed reconstruction plan and issued a resolution urging the international community, along with regional and global financial institutions, to provide immediate support.

The resolution also underscored the necessity of a political path toward a just and lasting resolution that realizes the Palestinian people's aspirations for statehood.
