Shafaq News/ Arab African leaders from Sudan, Djibouti, Mauritania, and Comoros called for urgent Arab unity at the 34th Arab League Summit in Baghdad on Saturday, condemning Israel's assault on Gaza. Sudan Sudanese Sovereign Council member Lieutenant General Ibrahim Jaber reaffirmed Khartoum's unwavering support for the Palestinian people, rejecting 'all forms of displacement and violations.' Jaber also blamed the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) for triggering Sudan's war, branding the group a 'terrorist militia' supported by foreign mercenaries. He urged Arab nations to back an immediate ceasefire, contingent on the RSF's withdrawal from occupied areas and the lifting of the siege on El Fasher in Darfur.

'We cannot accept that a defenseless population is being exterminated,' Omar declared, warning that the region faces converging crises and needs decisive, unified leadership. Mauritania Mauritanian Foreign Minister Mohamed Salem Ould Merzoug described the situation in Gaza as 'a comprehensive genocide,' criticizing the global community for 'failing to stop the bloodshed or ensure humanitarian access.' He also welcomed the recent easing of US sanctions on Syria and credited Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman for facilitating the shift, calling it a 'positive step' toward regional stabilization. Comoros Comoros' Foreign Minister Mbae Mohamed reaffirmed his country's support for Palestinian statehood, calling the issue 'the core of the Middle East conflict.'
