Hussein al-Sheikh, the secretary-general of the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO), has condemned the Israeli expansion of its buffer zone within the Gaza Strip, warning of the repercussions on the future of the territory.
The expansion has cut off “approximately 20 percent of its area and destroying thousands of homes and agricultural lands”, al-Sheikh said in a post on X.
“We call on the countries of the world and the UN Security Council to stop these occupation measures and demand that Israel withdraws immediately and stop its destructive war against the Palestinian people.”
