Al Arabiya News reported on the front page that Saudi Arabia called the famine in Gaza a "stain on the conscience of the international community," as the brutal actions of Israel have sparked public outrage, with another 33 Palestinians killed.
Saudi Arabia expressed deep concern over the official confirmation of the famine in the Gaza Strip and condemned the Israeli army for its acts against civilians, which it called "genocide."
In a statement, the Saudi Foreign Ministry said that the humanitarian disaster in Gaza is a direct result of the lack of accountability for Israel's repeated violations. "The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia states that the escalation of the humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza is directly caused by the lack of deterrent and accountability mechanisms for the repeated crimes of the Israeli occupation, and will remain a stain on the conscience of the international community, especially the permanent members of the United Nations Security Council, unless they take immediate action to end the famine and stop the genocide war and crimes committed by the Israeli occupation against the brotherly Palestinian people," the ministry said. Due to the famine in the largest city in Gaza, new pressure has been placed on Israel's 22-month offensive operation.
Local hospitals said that on Saturday, Israeli attacks and shootings killed at least 33 Palestinians, including those hiding in tents or searching for scarce food.
