Al-Azhar Ash-Sharif strongly condemns, in the firmest terms, the brutal occupation’s decision to seize and fully annex the lands of the Gaza Strip.
This unjust measure is irrefutable evidence that the occupation’s aim is to erase Palestine from existence, obliterate its presence from the world map, and swallow what remains of its land through the force of arms and state-sponsored terrorism.
Al-Azhar stresses that this unjust decision is a permanent stain of disgrace on the forehead of international institutions that have failed to confront such criminality.
It calls for an end to the occupation’s tragic policies, which are built on arrogance and violence, showing contempt for peoples, trampling on all international charters, laws, and UN resolutions, and persisting in committing more massacres and violations against the Palestinian people, the rightful owners of the land.
Al-Azhar calls for the urgent mobilization of all Arab, Islamic, and international efforts, and the intensification of all forms of political, diplomatic, and legal pressure, to put an end to this unprecedented historic tragedy.
It urges the world to stop this recklessness, unknown in the history of humanity, and to stand firmly against the occupier’s attempts to drag the entire region into chaos and collapse.
