The General Secretariat of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) submitted written submissions to the International Court of Justice (ICJ) regarding the legal consequences arising from the policies and practices of Israel in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including the eastern part of Al-Quds, pursuant to the mandate of the ICJ by the UN General Assembly, requesting an advisory opinion in this regard.

In these submissions, the OIC highlighted that Israeli policies and practices in the occupied Palestinian territory constitutes gross violations of the international law-guaranteed human rights, stressing that the Israeli colonial occupation of Palestinian Territory is illegal and violates international law and relevant UN resolutions, and must stop immediately.

In the document, the OIC reaffirmed its absolute and unwavering support for the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people, including their right to self-determination, return, and the embodiment of the establishment of their independent state on the 1967 borders, with Al-Quds Ashariff as its capital.

Meanwhile, The Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) will be holding an extraordinary virtual session for the Council of Foreign Ministers of Member States (CFM) on Monday, July 31, 2023. This session was requested by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the Chair of the 14th Islamic Summit, and the Republic of Iraq, to address the repeated incidents of desecration and burning of copies of al-Mushaf ash-Sharif in Sweden and Denmark.

This urgent meeting of ministers has been called in response to the final statement issued by the OIC Executive Committee after an extraordinary meeting held at the OIC General Secretariat headquarters in Jeddah on July 02, 2023. The statement addressed the burning of a copy of al-Mushaf ash-Sharif in Sweden and called for high-level emergency meetings as needed.

The meeting is being held considering Mr. Hissein Brahim Taha, the OIC Secretary-General’s consultations with the Member States regarding the implementation of the final statement issued by the Executive Committee. They are considering taking further measures in response to the repeated provocative actions that represent deliberate religious hatred and intolerance.—PR
