OIC Condemns Israeli Decision to Seize Homes and Displace Palestinian Families in Occupied Jerusalem

The General Secretariat of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) condemned a decision by Israeli occupation authorities to seize 15 homes in Silwan neighborhood in Jerusalem and forcibly displace Palestinian families to transfer them to settler organizations.
 The OIC warned that these measures represent an escalation in forced displacement policies aimed at altering the Arab identity, Palestinian presence, and demographic composition of the city.
 It affirmed that all decisions by Israeli occupation authorities, including annexation and settlement plans and attempts to impose sovereignty over the West Bank, are null and void and lack legitimacy under international law and relevant United Nations resolutions.
 The general secretariat reiterated its call on the international community, particularly the United Nations Security Council, to assume its responsibilities and act to halt violations and crimes in the occupied Palestinian territories.
