OIC ‘strongly condemns’ Israel attacks on Gaza Strip

The Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) said on Thursday it strongly condemns the Israeli military’s brutal aggression against Palestinians in Gaza, stating their action is a “war crime”.

In a post on X, the OIC said it “strongly condemns the ongoing Israeli military aggression against the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip for the sixth day in a row, killing more than 1,200 wounding thousands of civilians, including women and children, and destructing residential buildings, civilian facilities, infrastructure, hospitals, schools, places of worship, and United Nations facilities.”

The OIC also stated it “considers this brutal aggression against the Palestinian people a blatant international and humanitarian law violation and a war crime.”

OIC holds Israel fully responsible for the repercussions of the continuation of this “sinful aggression” and called on the international community to intervene urgently and force Israel to stop its ongoing attacks against the Palestinian people immediately, and to ensure the opening of humanitarian corridors to facilitate the entry of medicines and food supplies and basic needs to the Gaza Strip.
