The ministers also called on the international community, particularly the United Nations Security Council, to take practical and effective measures to compel Israel to fulfil its obligations under international law, including international humanitarian law, and UN Security Council Resolution 2803, and to hold those responsible for grave violations accountable in a manner that contributes to protecting civilians, preserving the prospects for completing the implementation of the agreement, and achieving a permanent ceasefire.
