	13/05/2024 Mr. Ahmed Aboul Gheit, Secretary-General of the League of Arab States, took part in the inauguration of the preparatory Economic and Social Council meeting of the League Council at the summit level in its 33rd ordinary session, scheduled for Thursday, 16 May 2024, in Manama. Ambassador Hossam Zaki, Assistant Secretary-General of the League of Arab States, highlighted that in his address, Mr. Aboul Gheit emphasised the challenging circumstances confronting the Arab nation, particularly the sustained aggression against Palestine over the past seven months. This aggression has led to significant economic and social ramifications and losses, necessitating urgent action from Arab and international leaders to alleviate the suffering of the Palestinian people. He also commended the humanitarian aid efforts by Arab countries to Gaza, which, regrettably, continue to be obstructed and prevented by Israel, exacerbating the plight of the people in the Gaza Strip.
