The Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) condemned the Israeli authorities’ dissemination of purported maps of the region covering Arab lands in Palestine, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria, including incitement to the annexation of the West Bank, and the practice of genocide in the Gaza Strip, describing them as a blatant violation of international law.

The OIC reiterated its rejection of provocative Israeli practices, “which coincide with a rising spate of crimes and organised terrorism perpetrated by extremist settlers and Israeli occupation forces in all parts of the occupied Palestinian territory”.
