Arab Summit Presses for End to Gaza 'Bloodshed'

  • Arab leaders met at a summit in Baghdad on Saturday and called for an immediate end to the war in Gaza amid escalating violence.
  • The summit occurred after Israel intensified its bombing campaign following Hamas’s October 7 attack that killed around 1,200 people and seized over 250 hostages.
  • Arab leaders accused Israel of attempting to forcibly displace Palestinians and highlighted the devastation in Gaza, where over 53,000 people have died and most of 2.3 million residents were displaced.
  • The summit, hosted by Iraq’s leader Mohammed Shia al-Sudani, included his commitment to allocate $20 million each for the rebuilding of Gaza and Lebanon. Meanwhile, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres called for an enduring ceasefire, emphasizing that there is no justification for imposing collective punishment on the Palestinian population.
  • The summit highlighted increasing global demands for Israel to restart negotiations for a ceasefire and permit the delivery of humanitarian aid into Gaza, while firmly opposing any plans for Palestinian displacement and stressing the necessity of immediate assistance in the war-torn region.
