Arab League Secretary-General criticizes Israeli peace plan rejection

Cairo is where Arab League Secretary-General Nabil Fahmy stated that the Israeli Prime Minister’s opposition to a 15-point roadmap for the comprehensive peace plan in Gaza, and the insistence against forming a Palestinian state in the Gaza Strip or West Bank, shows a disregard for international will and peace process foundations.

According to SPA, Fahmy noted in a statement that these positions weaken opportunities for a peaceful, just, and inclusive solution. He described repeated Israeli ceasefire violations, including attacks on civilians and medical centers in the Gaza Strip, as clear breaches of existing commitments and UN resolutions.

He emphasized the need for full implementation of the comprehensive peace plan and the path established by the Sharm El-Sheikh peace summit in October 2025.

The Secretary-General warned that Israeli efforts to impose new realities in the Gaza Strip and occupied West Bank to consolidate occupation and weaken the possibility of a Palestinian state contradict international laws and legitimacy resolutions.

Fahmy called on US President Donald Trump and the international community to ensure the implementation of the comprehensive peace plan per Security Council Resolution 2803 of 2025, urging pressure on the Israeli government to stop violations and adhere to commitments.
