Qatar's Permanent Representative to the UN, HE Sheikha Alya Ahmed bin Saif Al-Thani participated in a media stand organised by the group of countries signatories to the initiative calling for a halt to arms transfers to Israel, at the UN headquarters in New York.
The group said the initiative reflects grave concern over the unprecedented escalation of violence and the blatant violations of international law in the Gaza Strip. The group urged immediate action to halt the flow of weapons and ammunition to Israel, which may be used in the occupied Palestinian territories, including East Jerusalem.
