Geneva, September 15 (QNA) - The United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) on Monday unanimously adopted a resolution to hold an emergency debate Tuesday, on Israel's September 9 attack against the State of Qatar.

This emergency debate was requested during the 60th session of the Human Rights Council in Geneva by HE Permanent Representative of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan to the UN in Geneva Bilal Ahmad, on behalf of the Member States of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) Group and HE Permanent Representative of the State of Kuwait Naser Al Hayen, on behalf of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries.

In his speech, HE Permanent Representative of Algeria to the UN Office and International Organizations in Geneva Rachid Bladehane, explained the Arab Group's support for the call by the GCC and the OIC to hold an emergency discussion session.

During the session, HE Permanent Representative of the State of Qatar to the United Nations Office in Geneva Dr. Hind Abdulrahman Al Muftah, emphasized that holding this emergency discussion represents an opportunity for peace-loving countries to demonstrate their condemnation of this barbaric act and outdated arrogance, and an opportunity for the Human Rights Council to fulfill its duty to promote universal respect for all human rights values ​​and principles, as stipulated in General Assembly resolution 60/251, which established it.

She expressed her hope that this emergency discussion would demonstrate the seriousness, cohesion, and unity of the Human Rights Council in confronting the repercussions of this treacherous military attack on human rights, which represents yet another episode in a continuing pattern of violations and crimes committed by Israel in the region amid the international community's inability to hold it accountable.

Her Excellency said that Qatar, an active member of the Human Rights Council, the United Nations, the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), and the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), has been subjected to this blatant attack because of its role as a mediator working to host negotiations, facilitate dialogue to reach a ceasefire, and promote the language of negotiation over the barbaric logic of force, from which the world has reaped nothing but genocide, war crimes, crimes against humanity, and gross violations of human rights.

HE Al Muftah emphasized that this treacherous attack on a country hosting negotiations and negotiators is a clear message from the party that carried it out that it does not recognize peaceful dialogue or negotiation, and does not care about the lives of others, not even the lives of its own people, whom we have been striving to find a peaceful settlement from which they can benefit.

Her Excellency noted that the Israeli Prime Minister is pushing Israel toward international isolation and transforming it into a rogue state. His attack on the State of Qatar confirms that he was not negotiating in good faith, but rather was tampering with the security and stability of the region.

Israel should know that arbitrary force, devoid of legitimacy and wisdom, has only created graveyards and more victims and prisoners in human history, she added. (QNA)
