Gaza: Oman's Foreign Ministry issues statement on UNSC resolution

Muscat: The Foreign Ministry on Saturday said that the UN Security Council resolution on Gaza constitutes welcome progress, but it does not meet the broad international consensus calling for a ceasefire.

The UNSC adopted a resolution calling for “urgent steps to be taken to allow the immediate delivery of humanitarian aid to Gaza and to create the necessary conditions for a sustainable cessation of hostilities.”

The ministry added in a statement: “The Sultanate of Oman stresses the need to ensure continuous and effective flow of humanitarian and relief aid to the entire Gaza Strip.”

It also renewed its call to the Security Council to carry out its responsibilities in implementing all its resolutions related to the Arab-Israeli conflict in order to achieve a just, comprehensive and lasting peace, based on the two-state solution and ending the illegal Israeli occupation of Arab lands.
