Jeddah: The General Secretariat of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) has praised the decision to include Israeli occupation authorities and institutions in the United Nations (UN) Secretary-General's annual report concerning conflict-related violations of bodily integrity.

According to Qatar News Agency, the OIC regards this move as a significant legal and humanitarian achievement for Palestinian victims. It is seen as a vital step in advancing justice and accountability, aiming to put an end to the enduring situation of impunity.
