The Arab League has identified 60 Israeli organizations and extremist settler groups as terrorist entities, citing their participation in repeated incursions into al-Aqsa Mosque compound in the occupied Old City of al-Quds and their involvement in illegal settlement expansion throughout the occupied West Bank.

In a meeting on Friday, the Arab League decided to endorse a list of 22 Israeli figures accused of supporting the genocide against the Palestinian people, laying the groundwork for legal proceedings against them.

Moreover, the Arab League has reached a consensus to boycott 97 companies and institutions operating in Israeli settlements, aligning with the Human Rights Council's database. The Arab League now expects member states to promptly enforce these resolutions.

The regional organization also denounced "Israel's" systematic campaigns of incitement against the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA), calling on countries that have reduced their funding to the humanitarian agency to reconsider their decision.

The Arab League also urged Arab ministries, and organizations related to childhood and motherhood, to collaborate in delivering medical and humanitarian assistance to numerous Palestinian children, particularly those who have been amputated or orphaned as a result of Israeli aggression and massacres.

The organization emphasized the critical conditions in Rafah, cautioning against the forcible displacement of approximately 1.5 million Palestinians to the southern regions of the Gaza Strip, near the Egyptian border, viewing it as methodical Israeli aggression and labeling it an "attack on Arab national security."

The league urged the UN Security Council to pass a binding resolution to put an end to Israeli aggression and the forced displacement of Palestinians. It also called for ensuring the uninterrupted delivery of humanitarian aid to Gaza, enforcing the provisional measures mandated by the International Court of Justice, and complete implementation of relevant Security Council resolutions concerning the Palestinian issue, particularly Resolutions 2720 and 2721.

Arab League chief warns against Israeli offensive in Rafah

The Secretary-General of the Arab League, Ahmed Aboul Gheit, warned, on February 10, of the serious consequences of the Israeli occupation launching an offensive on the Rafah area in the Gaza Strip.

The Secretary-General of the Arab League underlined that "forcing hundreds of thousands to evacuate from the Strip is a violation of international law and humanitarian law, in addition to being a serious escalation of the situation in the region by crossing red lines for the national security of Egypt, a major Arab state."

"The world should be aware of the danger of Israeli practices driven by an extremist right-wing agenda, aiming to empty [Gaza] of its inhabitants and achieve comprehensive ethnic cleansing, which should have no place in this era," he underlined.

The top Arab official underlined that Israeli officials have not even attempted to hide their intentions of displacing and deporting the residents of Gaza, even their intentions to reintroduce Israeli settlements into Gaza.

"International action is necessary at this stage to prevent a catastrophe that would escalate and ignite the situation at the regional level," he concluded.
