Following Israel’s announcement that it would open the Rafah crossing in only one direction, the foreign ministers of Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, Turkey, Qatar, Pakistan, and Indonesia issued a joint statement opposing what they described as a step aimed at “expelling the Palestinian people from their land” as part of Israel’s attempt “to uproot the Palestinian people from their homeland.” They called for adhering to US President Donald Trump’s plan and opening the crossing in both directions.
