Leaders of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) have reiterated their calls for an “immediate and permanent” ceasefire in the Gaza Strip following their meeting in Kuwait on Sunday, reports Al Jazeera.
They welcomed the ICC’s arrest warrants for Israel’s Netanyahu and former Defence Minister Yoav Gallant, and said they rejected the description of Israeli aggression in the Gaza Strip as self-defence.
The leaders also “condemned in the strongest terms the shocking and horrific crimes committed by Israeli occupation forces in the Gaza Strip as part of a genocide and ethnic cleansing agenda, including the killing of civilians, torture, summary executions, enforced disappearances, forced displacement, and looting.”
