MWL Denounces Israel’s ‘Persistent, Horrific Acts of Violence’ against Gazans

IQNA – The secretary general of the Muslim World League censured a deadly Israeli strike on a school-turned-shelter in the Gaza Strip, calling for an end to Israeli atrocities in the Palestinian enclave.

Mohammed bin Abdulkarim Al-Issa on Tuesday condemned the “persistent and horrific acts of violence directed towards civilians and civilian facilities,” the Saudi Press Agency reported. 

“These acts represent a blatant violation of international and humanitarian laws and norms,” Al-Issa was quoted as saying.

Al-Issa emphasized the urgent need for the international community to promptly call for an end to the ongoing killings perpetrated by the Israeli military, and to end the systematic atrocities against innocent people.

The Israeli regime’s strike on the school-turned-shelter killed at least 12 Palestinians, all civilians.

Thousands of displaced Palestinians had sought refuge in the school, according to the civil defense in Gaza, amid the ongoing Israeli war on the Gaza Strip.

More than 40,100 Palestinians have been killed and over 92,000 of other injured in the Zionist regime’s attacks on Gaza since October 7, 2023.
