RIYADH — Arab and Muslim leaders demanded on Monday that Israel withdraw from occupied Palestinian territories as a precondition for regional peace while denouncing 'shocking' Israeli crimes in the war-ravaged Gaza Strip.A summit in Saudi Arabia's capital Riyadh gave the Arab League and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation's 57 member-nations a chance to speak with one voice on turmoil engulfing the region, more than a year into the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza.
The statement mentioned United Nations resolutions that have called on Israel to withdraw from these areas and the 2002 Arab Peace Initiative, in which Arab nations offered Israel normalized ties in return for a two-state agreement with the Palestinians along the 1967 lines.The international community should 'launch a plan with specific steps and timing under international sponsorship' to make a sovereign Palestinian state a reality, the statement said.
