According to the SPA, the members of the committee also called for addressing all the blatant violations practiced by the Israeli occupation troops against the people of Palestine, which increase the humanitarian tragedy and delay the entry of urgent humanitarian help to the besieged Gaza, stressing the significance of holding the occupation answerable for the current violations in Gaza and the occupied West Bank, including East Jerusalem, which violate global law and global humanitarian law.
The SPA reported that the members of the committee also stressed the significance of taking serious and urgent measures to ensure the securing of relief corridors for the delivery of an immediate humanitarian, medical, and food aid to Gaza, expressing their refusal to restrict the entry of humanitarian help quickly and safely.
The members of the committee also reiterated the need for creating serious political conditions that lead to the establishment of a Palestinian state along the lines of June 4, 1967, as per the relevant global resolutions, expressing their rejection of compartmentalizing the Palestinian issue and discussing the future of Gaza separately from the overall Palestinian issue, the SPA further said.
