DaysofPal- The Hamas Movement sent a crucial message to the leaders of the Arab and Islamic countries that will convene in Riyadh for an emergency summit, urging them to put pressure on the Israeli occupation state and its allies to halt the genocide in the Gaza Strip and Lebanon.
In a statement to the participating leaders, Hamas said that this alliance should also work on breaking the siege on Gaza and enabling the Palestinian people to obtain their rights to self-determination and the establishment of a fully sovereign and independent Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital.
Hamas reaffirmed its willingness to engage positively with any proposals and ideas that guarantee an end to Israeli aggression, the withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza, and the return of displaced people to their homes.
It also stressed that any ceasefire proposal must lead to efforts to provide the population with humanitarian assistance, break the siege, reconstruct Gaza, and achieve a real prisoner swap deal.
Hamas called on all countries and entities to work individually and collectively on developing plans and taking the necessary measures to provide immediate relief and shelter for the Gaza population, especially as the winter started in the Strip.
Hamas urged the Arab and Islamic countries to boycott the Israeli occupation state, revoke agreements signed with it, and make efforts to isolate it in the international arena.
The Movement called for taking legal action against the Israeli occupation at international courts and prosecuting its war criminals, especially in the countries they visit.
In its message, Hamas pointed out that the Israeli genocidal war on Gaza surpassed a 400-day mark, recalling the decisions taken about Gaza and its people during the previous summit that was held on November 11, 2023.
A Saudi Arabia-hosted Arab Islamic Summit is set to open in Riyadh in the coming hours, with leaders expected to hold discussions on Israel’s war on Gaza as well as its attacks on Lebanon.
The Saudi state-run Al-Ekhbariya news channel broadcast footage of Nigerian President Bola Tinubu and Lebanese Prime Minister Najib Mikati landing in Riyadh for the summit on Sunday evening. Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif are among those also scheduled to attend.
