On the 18th local time, multiple countries and international organizations issued statements condemning Israel's large-scale airstrikes on the Gaza Strip, warning that Israeli military actions threaten regional stability, and calling on the international community to take immediate action.

The Qatari Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a statement on the 18th strongly condemning the Israeli military's resumption of military operations in the Gaza Strip, which has resulted in civilian casualties, including women and children. It believes that this move blatantly challenges the international will to support peace and violates the ceasefire agreement. The statement said that Israel's escalation policy will drag the entire region into a dangerous situation, threatening regional security and stability. Qatar's Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Al Thani called for immediate international action to compel Israel to implement a ceasefire, comply with the Gaza ceasefire agreement, and resume negotiations.

The Egyptian Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a statement on the 18th stating that the Israeli airstrike "represents a dangerous escalation and may have serious consequences for regional stability". The statement urges the international community to intervene immediately to prevent the region from falling back into a cycle of violence.

The Jordanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs condemned Israel's resumption of violations in Gaza on the same day and emphasized that Israel must comply with all stages of the ceasefire agreement. If Israel continues to launch attacks, it will lead to an escalation of the regional situation. It called on the international community to fulfill its legal and moral responsibilities, force Israel to immediately cease military operations, fully implement the ceasefire agreement, restore power supply to Gaza, and reopen ports for humanitarian aid to Gaza.

On the 18th, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Bagai strongly condemned Israel's new round of attacks on Gaza and the killing of hundreds of Palestinian civilians, calling it a continuation of Israel's genocide against Palestine, and emphasizing that the US government bears direct responsibility for the crimes committed by Israel. Bagae warns that this will have catastrophic consequences and impacts on global peace and security. He also called on the Organization of Islamic Cooperation to take action to support Palestine.

In addition, Secretary General Gheit of the League of Arab States, the Foreign Ministries of Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Algeria, Pakistan, Türkiye, France, South Africa and Hezbollah in Lebanon also issued statements one after another, strongly condemning Israel's new round of attacks on the Gaza Strip, and strongly calling on the United Nations Security Council and the international community to take firm action to ensure Israel's full compliance with the ceasefire agreement at all stages.

Palestine demands Arab League to hold special meeting on Israeli airstrikes

Palestinian Permanent Representative to the Arab League, Muhannad Akruk, stated in a statement on the 18th that due to Israel's repeated "aggression, genocide, and ethnic cleansing" against the Palestinian people, which has cut off electricity supply to the Gaza Strip and obstructed the delivery of humanitarian, medical, and relief aid to the Gaza Strip, Palestine has requested the Arab League Secretariat to convene a special meeting at the level of permanent representatives of the Arab League Council.

Akruk pointed out that the special meeting is expected to discuss action plans from Arab countries and the international community, forcing Israel to "cease its crimes and aggression against the Palestinian people and comply with international law and resolutions of international legitimacy".
