The Independent Permanent Human Rights Commission (IPHRC) of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) announced that it will hold an emergency meeting on Thursday in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, to review the serious humanitarian and human rights repercussions of the unlawful Israeli attack on the State of Qatar on Sep. 9. The attack is considered a blatant violation of the United Nations Charter, international law, and international humanitarian law, as well as a threat to the security, safety, and stability of the region.
In a statement, the Commission said that, based on the strong condemnation of the brutal attack by OIC Member States and in line with the outcomes of the extraordinary Arab-Islamic Summit held in Doha on Sep. 15, 2025, the emergency meeting will focus on the human rights and humanitarian dimensions of the crisis. It will assess the situation on the ground and issue urgent recommendations that serve the interests of OIC Member States.
The IPHRC reaffirmed its commitment to working with all Member States and relevant stakeholders to uphold the fundamental rights of civilians and to ensure accountability for the flagrant violations of international law.
