Today, Thursday, the work of the Arab League Council at the level of Arab foreign ministers began in the Saudi capital, Riyadh, to prepare for the emergency Arab summit scheduled to be held next Saturday, at the request of the State of Palestine and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and with the participation of the Minister of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates, Riyad Al-Maliki.

Assistant Secretary-General of the League of Arab States, Ambassador Hossam Zaki, said that the meeting is dedicated to preparing the draft resolution that will be presented to the Arab leaders, related to the only item on the agenda, which is the Israeli aggression against the Gaza Strip.

Zaki added that the draft resolution, which will be issued at the conclusion of the summit, will express the collective Arab position on the Israeli aggression against the Palestinian people, and how the Arabs will move on the international scene to stop it, support Palestine and its people, and condemn the Israeli occupation and hold it accountable for its crimes.
