Ambassador Al-Adayleh: The Humanitarian Tragedy in Gaza Demands Firm International Action
Jordan’s Permanent Representative to the Arab League, Ambassador Amjad Al-Adayleh, affirmed that the ongoing humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza, now entering its 21st month, and the continued Israeli violations against civilians in both Gaza and the West Bank — including repeated infringements on the legal and religious status of Islamic and Christian holy sites in Jerusalem and Hebron — represent a deep, bleeding wound in the conscience of humanity, one that demands a firm international response.اضافة اعلان

Speaking at a session hosted Monday by the Arab League headquarters in honor of Vietnamese President Vo Van Thuong, Ambassador Al-Adayleh delivered the main speech on behalf of the Council of the Arab League, as Jordan currently presides over the council at the ministerial level.

In his remarks, Al-Adayleh welcomed the Vietnamese president and highlighted Vietnam’s historic struggle for national liberation as one of the most significant examples of human resistance and the will of people seeking freedom and independence.

He emphasized that the international community must act decisively to stop the Israeli aggression, lift the siege on Gaza, end the genocide and starvation policies, and ensure unimpeded delivery of humanitarian aid, along with allowing UN agencies to operate freely and provide international protection for the Palestinian people.

Ambassador Al-Adayleh, in the presence of Arab League Secretary-General Ahmed Aboul Gheit and Arab ambassadors, also referred to the Palestinian people's enduring struggle for more than eight decades, affirming their legitimate right to freedom, independence, and the establishment of an independent Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital, based on international legitimacy and the Arab Peace Initiative — a right that Vietnam was among the first nations to recognize.

Regarding Arab-Vietnamese cooperation, Al-Adayleh stressed that the Vietnamese president's visit to the Arab League marks an important milestone in strengthening bilateral cooperation, and reflects the mutual commitment to enhancing coordination in international forums, upholding shared values in supporting justice, respecting sovereignty, and championing the aspirations of nations for freedom and dignity.
