OIC to hold meeting today over Israel’s annexation plans

Sunday 15-September-2019

The Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) intends to convene an emergency meeting at the request of Saudi Arabia to discuss Israel’s stated intents to annex West Bank areas according to Turkey’s foreign ministry.

The meeting which will be attended by foreign minister of OIC member countries is intended to discuss Israeli premier Benjamin Netanyahu’s recent remarks about his intent to annex occupied Palestinian areas to Israel if he won the Knesset election.

Last Wednesday Netanyahu said he would declare immediate sovereignty over the Jordan Valley if he won the election and formed his government. He also threatened to annex illegal settlements in the West Bank to Israel.
