The 2024 Symposium on the Question of Jerusalem \u201cJerusalem and the Gaza War: Palestinian Identity and Existence Under Threat of Erasure\u201d<\/em> <\/strong>was convened at the headquarters of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, under the joint auspices of the OIC and the Committee on the Exercise of the Inalienable Rights of the Palestinian People (CEIRPP). Ahead of the event, the Committee Delegation held a bilateral meeting with H.E. Mr. Hissein Brahim Taha, Secretary General of the OIC. The Delegation also conducted, in the margins of the Symposium, a visit to Riyadh to meet with representatives of the Government of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.<\/p>\n

The Symposium on Jerusalem aimed to highlight Israel\u2019s policies of forced displacement and dispossession of the Palestinian people in the city, in the context of similar efforts elsewhere in the Occupied Palestinian Territory (OPT), and particularly in light of Israel\u2019s ongoing war in Gaza and the onslaught of massive, forced displacement of the Palestinian civilian population. The event also showed the Committee\u2019s support to the OIC call for international action to stop Israel\u2019s aggression and to reach a peaceful settlement of the conflict based on international law and relevant Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ resolutions leading to an independent State of Palestine, with East Jerusalem as its capital.<\/p>\n
