Al Yamahi also highlighted the contributions of the United States, noting President Donald Trump’s involvement in facilitating dialogue and supporting regional stability. The ceasefire, he added, should now open the door to broader initiatives focused on reconstruction and relief for civilians who have suffered the brunt of the conflict.

In his statement, Al Yamahi urged all sides to adhere strictly to the terms of the agreement to prevent further escalation. He called on the international community to ensure accountability and press Israel to halt unilateral actions that violate international law, including settlement expansion, settler violence, and restrictions on Palestinian funds.

The Arab Parliament reaffirmed its unwavering support for the Palestinian people and their right to self-determination, emphasizing that the ceasefire must not only stop the fighting but also ignite a process of rebuilding trust and restoring hope for a just and lasting peace.
