Eight nations have urged Israel to adhere to its commitments outlined in the initial phase of the Gaza ceasefire arrangement, which encompasses facilitating the "prompt, secure, and unobstructed" transportation of humanitarian assistance. In a unified declaration, the foreign ministers from Turkey, Egypt, Indonesia, Jordan, Pakistan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates voiced "serious apprehension regarding the persistent humanitarian distress in Gaza" and advocated for the preservation of the ceasefire and cessation of all breaches.
Furthermore, the ministers firmly opposed any actions targeting the expulsion or forcible displacement of Palestinians from their homeland, as well as attempts to modify the territorial or demographic composition of the occupied Palestinian territory. They emphasized the necessity for ongoing American participation in the execution of the ceasefire plan and maintained that Gaza should remain "an integral component of the Palestinian territory," alongside serving as a pathway towards an autonomous Palestinian state.
