OIC condemns Israeli approval of 34 new West Bank settlements
"The Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) has condemned Israel's approval of 34 new settlements in the occupied West Bank, saying the decision violates international law."
"The OIC's general secretariat stated that Israel, the occupying power, has no sovereignty over the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including East Al-Quds (Jerusalem), and that all its measures aimed at changing the geographic and demographic reality there are null and void under international law."
"The 34 settlements approved on Thursday come on top of 68 approved since Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's right-wing government came to power in 2022."
"Turkiye also criticised Israel's approval of the new settlements, calling it a serious violation of international law and UN resolutions."
The Palestinian Presidency's office and the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation condemned Israel's approval of 34 new settlements in the occupied West Bank. They stated that this decision violates international law and undermines the two-state solution. The settlements were approved secretly by the Israeli government, with reports indicating that this is the largest number of settlements approved in a single cabinet session. Turkiye also criticized the decision, emphasizing its serious implications for international law and UN resolutions.
