Saudi Foreign Minister Faisal bin Farhan on Monday called on the international community to reject Israeli aggression and oppose plans to seize full control over the Gaza Strip.

“The international community must reject the statement of the Israeli occupiers on their intention to establish full control over the Gaza Strip and put an end to the crimes of the Israeli occupying forces,” bin Farhan told the extraordinary session of the Council of Foreign Ministers of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) in Jeddah.

The Saudi minister also condemned statements by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu supporting the creation of a so-called “Greater Israel” through the seizure of Arab territories and all Palestinian lands.

Bin Farhan stressed that the world must support the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) and other UN agencies providing critical assistance in the occupied Palestinian territories.

A day later, Netanyahu approved military plans to establish full control over Gaza City and defeat the Palestinian Hamas movement, a move widely condemned across the Arab and Islamic world as part of broader Israeli aggression.
