Riots in Gaza: Eight countries sharply condemn Israeli violations of the ceasefire agreement

Amid the escalation of the situation in Gaza, international unrest has begun regarding Israel’s role in violating the ceasefire terms. In early February 2026, the foreign ministers of Qatar, Egypt, Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, Indonesia, Pakistan, Turkey, and Saudi Arabia issued a coordinated statement criticizing the systematic violations of the agreed-upon deal.

Joint Position of the International Community

The eight ministers released a joint statement expressing deep concern over Israel’s actions. According to Jin10, recent unrest and local hostilities have resulted in over a thousand civilian casualties. This level of losses indicates an escalation of the conflict and a departure from the principles outlined in the agreement. The international community views these actions as deliberate non-compliance with the agreed terms.

Threats to Regional Stability and Peace

The ministers emphasized that ongoing violations pose a serious threat to the development of the situation in the region. Israel’s actions could exacerbate already tense relations between Middle Eastern and Asian countries, undermining years of efforts to establish lasting peace. Experts note that such actions also hinder trust-building between parties and make it impossible to create conditions for normalization in Gaza.

Prospects and International Efforts Toward the Peace Process

The eight ministers highlighted the priority of all parties demonstrating political will and actively working toward the success of the second phase of the peace reconstruction plan. The international community calls for adherence to the agreements reached and the creation of real conditions for the region to transition to a more stable phase of development. Their joint position signals that unrest and non-compliance with agreements have serious international consequences.
