Arab Summit Presses for End to Gaza 'Bloodshed'

  • Arab leaders convening in Baghdad on Saturday urged a swift halt to the conflict in Gaza and condemned Israel for allegedly attempting to forcibly remove Palestinians from the area.
  • The summit took place after Hamas launched an assault on Israeli towns on October 7, 2023, resulting in approximately 1,200 deaths and the capture of more than 250 hostages, which led Israel to escalate its bombing offensive.
  • The leader of Iraq, hosting the summit, announced the establishment of a fund dedicated to post-war rebuilding, with an initial commitment of $20 million allocated each for Gaza and Lebanon.
  • Egypt’s President Abdel-Fattah al-Sisi called Israel’s actions "systematic crimes" aimed at annihilating Palestinians, while UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres urged a permanent ceasefire and condemned collective punishment.
  • The summit urged the international community to exert pressure for a ceasefire, humanitarian access, and reconstruction funding, rejecting any plans for forced displacement of Palestinians in Gaza.
