Jeddah, July 22, 2019, SPA -- The Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) strongly condemned the demolition of dozens of houses in Wadi Hummus area of the town of Sur Baher in Al-Quds by Israeli forces. The Secretary General of OIC Dr. Yousef bin Ahmed Al-Othaimeen affirmed in a press release that this dangerous escalation comes within the framework of the continuation of the Israeli occupation attempts to change the character and demographic composition of the holy city of Al-Quds and force the displacement of Palestinian citizens from their lands and leave behind their properties, a grave development that requires legal accountability. He called on the international community to coerce Israel to desist from its illegal practices and put an end to all its actions that violate the rights of Palestinians. -- SPA 18:07 LOCAL TIME 15:07 GMT 0020 www.spa.gov.sa/w1142626
