The Arab League Council warned on Wednesday of the catastrophic consequences of "aggressive Israeli threats to invade and destroy the Palestinian city of Rafah, which is home to more than 1.5 million displaced citizens."

During an extraordinary meeting in Cairo to discuss the war on Gaza, the council condemned the flow of arms into Israel and Israel's "continued genocide against Palestinians".

In a statement, the council denounced Israel's refusal to comply with UN Security Council resolution 2728, which calls for an immediate ceasefire during the month of Ramadan and an end to Israeli crimes in the West Bank aimed at the systematic destruction of refugee camps.
The Council stressed "the need to implement the decision of the Joint Arab Islamic Summit in Riyadh to break the Israeli siege of the Gaza Strip, to allow immediate access of Arab, Islamic and international humanitarian aid convoys by land, sea and air to the entire Strip, and to call on relevant international organisations to participate in breaking the siege."
