CAIRO (Reuters) – Jordan’s King Abdullah said in his opening speech at the Cairo Peace Summit on Saturday that the forced or internal displacement of Palestinians would be a war crime.
The summit is being held as Israel prepares a ground assault on Gaza following Hamas’ attack that killed 1,400 people.
More than 4,100 Palestinians have been killed in Israel’s counteroffensive, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry, amid a growing humanitarian crisis.
