Arab League on Gaza: The world community should assume responsibility

CAIRO, (PIC)-- The people in Gaza are paying a heavy price for the ongoing Israeli siege in their educational, health, infrastructure, economic, and construction sectors, the Arab League said in a statement on Tuesday on the occasion of the third anniversary of the devastating Israeli war on the Strip.

The statement warned of the renewed Israeli calls for a new war on Gaza, charging that the world community’s silence toward that aggression was encouraging Israel to go ahead in its aggressive policy against the Palestinian people without expecting any penal or deterrent measure.

The Arab League urged the world community especially the UN and its secretary general along with the international quartet committee to assume their responsibility and lift “this oppressive siege” and to punish the Israeli war criminals.
