PGCC condemns expansion of Zionist settlments

Secretary General of the Persian Gulf Cooperation Council (PGCC), Abdul-Rahman al-Attiyah on Thursday condemned the Zionist regime’s move for construction of about 1600 residential units in the north of Holy Quds.

Attiyah said that the Zionist regime has violated the international laws and called on the regime to stop construction of the settlements in the Palestinian territories.

“Tel Aviv seeks to expand settlements in the east of Bait ul-Muqaddas in order to change the status of occupied territories,” he reiterated.

Al-Attiyah called on the international community to stop the illegal approach of the Zionist regime for construction of settlements and remove the Gaza blockade in order to ease sending humanitarian aid to Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip.
