It urged Israel to lift all barriers on humanitarian access and allow UN operations. The signatories also rejected forced displacement plans and warned that Israel’s renewed E1 settlement plan threatens the two-state solution. They called for a ceasefire and renewed peace efforts backed by the U.S., Qatar, and Egypt.
