African Union calls for ending the Israeli brutal war on Gaza, conducting international investigation into the Israeli violations
The African Union on Sunday condemned the Ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza Strip, calling for an independent international investigation into Israeli violations of international humanitarian law in Gaza.
The final statement of the 37th Summit of the African Union (AU) condemned the brutal Israeli war and the use of excessive force against 2.2 million unarmed civilians.
The statement called for an independent international investigation into Israeli violations of international humanitarian law in Gaza, and Israel’s use of internationally banned weapons to target hospitals and media institutions in the Strip.
The summit also urged Israel to respond to international calls for a permanent ceasefire in Gaza Strip, comply with the decisions of the International Court of Justice to prevent genocide, and lift the unjust siege imposed on Gaza Strip.
The statement also condemned the Israeli occupation’s policies of collective punishment against civilians, particularly its attempts to forcibly transfer Gaza population to Sinai Peninsula in Egypt, noting that these policies necessitate immediate international response and intervention.
