It emphasised that the Palestinian cause will remain the central and foremost issue on its agenda.
Mohamed Ahmed Al Yamahi, President of the Arab Parliament and Chairman of the Committee, stated in his speech that this meeting comes within the framework of the Arab Parliament’s follow-up on developments in the occupied Palestinian territories and all the difficult and decisive moments Palestine is experiencing - with its people facing genocide, starvation, displacement, and the complete destruction of its infrastructure.
