The 39th Session of the Council of Foreign Ministers of Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) Member States condemned the new Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip, urging the Security Council to intervene.

OIC's "Session of Solidarity for Sustainable Development" opened today in Djibouti.

In his address to the Conference, the Secretary General of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), Prof. Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu, said that the Israeli blockade on the socio-economic reconstruction of the Strip is illegal and a collective punishment of 1.5 million Palestinians in Gaza, adding that the consequences of this blockade are an ongoing crime against humanity that has to end immediately.
