exposed the double standards and selective application of international laws and UN resolutions by the global community. Representing Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, Saudi finance minister Mohammed Al-Jadaan said that the Israeli invasion of the besieged Gaza was in flagrant violation of international laws and it had led to one of the history’s worst humanitarian catastrophes.

“The Gaza conflict would inevitably lead to consequences that go beyond this crisis and jeopardize the credibility of the current international system, which will have a negative impact on the world’s future ability to maintain international peace and security,” Al-Jadaan said.

He underlined Saudi Arabia’s rejection of targeting civilians and infrastructure, calling for an immediate halt to Israeli military operations to prevent further bloodshed and displacement of Palestinians.

He also stressed the need for urgent access to relief and medical supplies for Gaza residents and urged for stability restoration, emphasizing the Palestinian people’s right to an independent state within the 1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital.
