Censure of the Greater Israel Strategy and Its Threats to Regional Stability

Imperative Call for an Unconditional Ceasefire and Humanitarian Access
In an exertion to bring about durable peace, Pakistan has offered the OIC with a seven point strategy. In widespread agreement with UN Security Council Resolution 2735, the first step is to request an abrupt, everlasting, and unconditional ceasefire in Gaza and the occupied Palestinian zones. The strategy also appeal for a wired international promise to support the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA), the defense of assistance workers and UN recruits, and unrestricted humanitarian entrance to all civilians in need.
Pakistan also request for an end to the capture of Palestinian areas, particularly in the West Bank and East Jerusalem, as well as to the development of settlements and involuntary displacement.
According to the plan, a two state solution originated on international law and UN determinations should be proven through a time assured political process. The Pakistan leadership claims on accountability for war crimes and crimes against humanity and highlights that constant occupation will spoil peace.

It appeals attention to the humanitarian emergency in Gaza and wants direct international act to put an end to the combat, defend civilians, and twitch political talks for a reasonable and longstanding solution.
