The Permanent Representative of Oman Dr. Mohammed bin Awwad Al Hassan stated that the countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council emphasize the need for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza.

The ceasefire will allow humanitarian teams to enter the Gaza Strip safely and provide medical aid to the people in Gaza. 

Dr. Al Hassan called for the crossings to be opened and the protection of workers in relief organizations and medical teams in the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestinian Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA).
