The ministers expressed concern about humanitarian conditions in Gaza and urged unhindered aid deliveries, protection of the ceasefire and implementation of commitments under the diplomatic framework described in their statement. They opposed forced displacement of Palestinians and actions they said would alter the occupied territory's character. This report attributes those demands to the ministerial group and does not claim they were adopted as a United Nations resolution.
