JEDDAH, June 11 (Bernama-WAFA) -- The Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) condemned on Tuesday the assault by the Israeli occupation forces on the ship attempting to break the Gaza blockade, Palestine News and Info Agency (WAFA) reported.
In a statement, the OIC expressed its “strong condemnation of the blatant assault on the ship Madleen and the kidnapping of the political and humanitarian figures on board,” describing the act as “an extension of the state terrorism practised by Israel, the occupying power.”
The OIC welcomed “the humanitarian efforts and initiatives, as well as the activities of international solidarity with the Palestinian people,” and called for “the immediate release of international activists and the protection of all humanitarian, medical and media workers, while stressing the need to allow sufficient and sustained entry of relief and humanitarian aid into the Gaza Strip.”
The OIC “renewed its call on all international actors to assume their responsibilities and compel the Israeli occupation to end all crimes of genocide, ethnic cleansing, destruction, starvation and blockade against the Gaza Strip.”
